A short stub of Birkheads Road to the east of Alma Road (in the foreground). Maps suggest that the terrace of cottages date from the very end of the 19th/start of the 20th century. These have survived, whereas other buildings at the time, including what is marked on the 1896 1:2,500 map as a "lecture room", but shown on the 1963 1:2,500 map as St Mark's Church Hall, where the building on the far left of the photo now stands, have all been replaced by offices.
