New apartments have now been constructed on the site of the former Antelope Services which had been left undeveloped since its demolition around 2005. Before the construction of the service station in the 1970s the Allesley Old Road frontage between Lord Street and Mount street housed a short group of shops with accommodation above set back from the road, book-ended by two master watchmaker dwellings with workshops dating from the second half of the 19th century.
