Terrace on Kingston Road. Old Maps show that nos 53 - 57 were built in the late 19th Century and originally included a further house on the left, no 51, with the opening being central to the block. No 51 was demolished in the 1980s to improve access to the Ashetree Works behind, used by Ashe Laboratories who manufactured pharmaceutical, toiletry, hair care, dietary, veterinary, baby care products. The site was redeveloped in the 1990s by the building of Kings Court. The building on the right, no 59, is a redevelopment of an earlier building on the site.
