Looking along the east side of Newberry Road from its junction with Rodwell Avenue/Spring Road. The houses here are first shown on the 1929 25" map, although the other side of the road is shown as partly developed on the 1866 edition, and fully developed (along with the taller terrace in the background in this photo) on the 1902 edition. On all these maps the road is shown as Dorset Place (a name initially applied just to the terrace on the west side, but later to the road itself), the current name not appearing until the 1965 1:1250 map.
