1970s(?) housing on a block of land on Coulsdon Common. Although building here would seem incongruous, given the surrounding common, the block in which the road stands is shown on the 1871 6 inch map as an enclosure surrounding houses named Newland Cottages, with a care home by the name of Newland Cottages still on the site.
