This part of Blakenhall is characterised by housing constructed mostly in the 1930s in various styles. The terrace of four houses seen here, on the corner of Milford Road, was distinctive in that it originally had curved glass at the outer ends of the semi bay windows, though in all cases this has been replaced with twin sections of flat glass. In their current form, these houses blend in far more with their more conservatively architectured neighbours.
