Edwardian houses in Church Road. As the name suggests, the road leads to the church (St Bartholomews - see Image). However the road was cut in two by, and this end bypassed by, the building of Thorns Road (now Brighton Road) in 1816, as part of the new Gatton to Povey Cross turnpike. As a result, this section of Church Road is now a quiet residential road.
