Three buildings located between Image to the south and Vallance Road to the north that were built around 1926. Audley House to the left was a purpose built fire station that replaced former premises in George Street and remained in operation until 1976 when it moved to its current site in English Close, see http://regencysociety-jamesgray.com/volume12/source/jg_12_177.html for a view of the station in 1928. The building was converted into flats in 1981. Regent House in the middle was originally an electricity sub-station and is now combined offices and flats. Vallance House at the northern end to the left was originally a sorting office for the Royal Mail but has been converted into offices occupied by a solicitors practice since 2006. Previously the site had been part of a farm, see http://regencysociety-jamesgray.com/volume12/source/jg_12_157.html for a view from the north taken in 1914.
