Originally a residential street that ran from Montague Place to Upper Bedford Street that was developed in the 1820s. All the street was removed in the mid 1960s and redeveloped. See http://regencysociety-jamesgray.com/volume22/source/jg_22_199.html for an image taken in 1954. The high rise block on the left is Somerset Point with Hereford House in the distance to the right. In the foreground on the right hand side is the rear to Evelyn Glennie Court.
