Cul-de-sac off Yorke Road built on the gardens of Wall House in Yorke Road and of 3 houses in London Road. It first appears on the 1970-6 1:1,250 map, compared with nothing on the 1963 edition. However, despite the majority of buildings now in the road being shown on the 1970-6 map, they are of three very different styles, suggesting that they were built in phases, possibly with the first stretch, that in the former garden of Wall House, slightly predating the rest of the road. Seen here is one of two blocks of townhouses in the close together with a separate detached house.
