The houses in this short street, like most of those in Rodbourne, were built in Victorian times. The street was built on the site of North Laines Farmhouse. The houses have front doors which open directly onto the pavement. For many decades the housing in Rodbourne was mainly occupied by employees of the former Great Western Railway works and their families. Image
