The whole area around Bradley Lane features post-war pre-fabricated housing of the common concrete type, but this long row on Bradley Lane itself is something quite extraordinary. Brick-built, semi-detached pairs of flat-roofed houses with glass bricks by design in several external windows (possibly bathrooms?). Most appear substantially "as built". I've been advised (2013) by a Geograph site visitor that Bilston UDC was responsible for design and construction in 1922 as council housing.
