The Louisa Cottages have been photographed several times for Geograph already (see Image] for example). They were built as almshouses in two phases, in 1893 and 1901 as dates on their oriel windows attest. This view is from the western end of Park Street as it meets Akeman street (off to the right) and continues ahead as Park Road. The row of houses beyond the Louisa Cottages all have quite unusual Dutch Gables.
