This intriguingly named road is off the High Street. It is a short private road but a public Restricted Byway that leads to Cowards Lane. Looking at old Ordnance Survey maps available on line the whole area on this side of the High Street is shown as allotment gardens in the 1881 edition, but the route, and some of the current houses along the High Street, were in place by 1898.
