First, Second and Third Avenues were some of the first suburban developments north of The Forest, with some substantial houses dating from c 1850-70, the period of the Borough's initial expansion after the Enclosure Act of 1845. The striking west front of the Polish Church of Our Lady of Czestochow is on the other side of Sherwood Rise.
