Kirby Road - Crown Point Villas

Crown Point Villas comprise three pairs of semi-detached houses adjoined by a terrace of four. They form part of the Colman's building scheme (they were the homes of the foremen) and date from the late 19th century. Trowse is heavily influenced by buildings constructed by the Colmans (of mustard fame) who in the late 19th century developed it as a model village for their employees, close to their new works at Carrow.
