Houses in the Graig Park area were built in the 1930s when few people in this area owned cars. The semi-detached houses were built without garages. This 25 metre long building in Graig Park Road, near the corner of Graig Park Circle, contains nine doors to what look like lockup garages. I do not know if this building was erected at the same as surrounding houses, nor if it is still in use as garages today.
