The two T-shaped blocks to the left are Torre Green and Torre Gardens. The three in the distance are Appleton Court, Appleton Close and Saville Green (the latter named after a local road, no longer extant). A fourth, Appleton Square, is hidden behind the Torres. The grassy area in the foreground does not seem to have a name on modern maps but is part of the site of the former clay pits that served the Burmantofts pottery and brick works. Presumably being landfill is what has prevented it being built on.
