The current road heads north from Edward Street and eventually ends on Albion Hill. However, it originally terminated at Carlton Hill with this section in view once known as Nelson Street until the old Victorian slum housing was cleared in the late 1930s though little was developed along the road until the 1960s. The road name appears to have changed in the 1970s. The building on the right is The Curve whilst in the distance is the former Lion & Unicorn pub that closed around 2010 and has now been converted into flats.
