The new blocks of flats and apartments seem near to completion at the east end of Herbert Road. It is a different look to the past when this spot was a row of Victorian terraced houses, a former Prmitive Methodist Bethseda chapel and a rail line that used to run from the Dean Lane colliery to a coalyard nearby.
