Part of a large area of post war development begun in the 1940s to meet the housing shortages at the end of the war. Street names are a mixture of well known figures of that time, ie US President Roosevelt, and local recipients of the Victoria Cross, in this case Captain Richard Annand, awarded a VC in WW2.
