Nicknamed "Frying Pan Row" for reasons which were explained to me by someone at Cononley Mine but which are now slightly hazy. I believe these houses were built for workers at the burgeoning lead mine, and they shared a single frying pan (this was pre-minimum wage), the availability of which was indicated by banging on the neighbour's wall.
