This replaces council housing built on farmland in the late 1950s, judging by old maps. There were terraces of houses and some small blocks of flats or maisonettes. Geograph has a few photographs of the original estate: Image and Image from 2010; and Image from 2012. The road on the left is Melody Close. The River Sowe is off to the right: is some of this new development in the floodplain?
