Large detached house named Southfield and built 1891 (name/date plaque - planning approved Oct 1890) for Thomas Wallis JP Timber Merchant and one-time alderman, by architect W Mortimer. Thomas is still listed here in my 1919 directory. Southfield had a large garden (c.2000 sq m - 0.5 acres) between Derby and Weir Streets on which was built 2-5 St Catherines Road, the Coach House and 5 Weir Street (all seem to be on the 1920 map). At least two plans for various housing arrangements had been made prior to Southfield but not implemented. The Coach House was built as a stable for Southfield and later converted to residential.
