The houses are on the site of the old Rolls-Royce Aero-Engine Works which opened in 1953 and closed in 2019. The new streets Avon Drive and Dart Avenue are named after some of the engines associated with the works. The Mavor and Coulson Mining Equipment works was on the left side of the road and was built around 1930. This site has also been re-developed with new housing.
