Newlands Close, Rastrick

When the houses on the west side of Crossley Street were built around 1900, a gap was left to give access to a triangular field behind. This was duly developed as Newlands Close in the late 20C (Newlands was the name of the field, or rather of a series of fields on the east side of Huddersfield Road).
