Much of this area on the right bank of the Ouse and within the city wall consists of Victorian workers houses. One wonders what was here before, although there are a few ancient buildings scattered through the area. These are shown on the first edition OS map of circa 1850, but there are also large areas which appear to be gardens and the grounds of Trinity Priory.
