Late Victorian housing. The road itself is already shown on the 1870 1:2500 map, with the area between it and the Redhill - Guildford railway at Deepdene (then Boxhill) Station (the side of the road seen here) shown as a nursery garden, named Boxhill Nursery. The houses first appear on the 1896 1:2500 map. In the background is Ashcombe, one of a number of large villas built on the stretch of London Road between Lincoln Road and the railway at around the same time.
