The site with the diggers was originally the garden of No 27 Newbold Street whose gable end is seen half left. A map of 1939 shows the plot divided, with a house on the nearer part. By 1952 it had been extended towards Newbold Terrace, foreground. Of red brick, it was out of keeping with its neighbours: it shows to the right of the clock tower in Image Now it's gone. Two planning applications for a dwelling on the site have been withdrawn; permission for a double garage has been granted. Building in progress: Image
