This path leads from Agnes Street through to the Witham riverside path. The buildings are part of the Riverside sheltered accommodation complex. There is a Soviet style bleakness here, barely mitigated by the summer, which I think shows an uncaring approach when it was built in the 1980s, not long after South Kesteven District Council was created. This is not brutalist architecture, but it is influenced by it, and can perhaps be called Functionalist. The area is illustrated here: https://granthammatters.co.uk/town-centre-street-before-new-developments/ before these homes were built.
