Named pairs of semi-detached cottages in the northern section of Copthorne Road, dating from when the road was first developed as a cul-de-sac off Barnett Wood Lane. On the left are Rosemary Cottages and on the right are Camellia Cottages. Both their name plaques also give a date, 1904.

Two pairs of semi-detached cottages in the northern section of Copthorne Road, dating from when the road was first developed as a cul-de-sac off Barnett Wood Lane. Both have date plaques which also show what are presumably the initials of the builder, along with (in the case of the left hand pair) the name of the cottages. The plaque on the left hand pair is inscribed "EL Chick's Grove Cottages 1904" and that on the right "WO 1905".

Pairs of semi-detached cottages in the northern section of Copthorne Road, dating from when the road was first developed as a cul-de-sac off Barnett Wood Lane. All have date plaques which also show either the name of the cottages or what are presumably the initials of the builder. Nearest are Rosemary Cottages (1904) and then Primula Cottages (also 1904). The three pairs beyond have plaques inscribed (from right to left) "EEW 1904", "JRM 1904" and "JRM 1905".

Looking across By Pass Road from the 1930s built southern section of Copthorne Road to the original section, built as a cul-de-sac off Barnett Wood Lane in the early 1900s before later being extended southwards. The northern section has since reverted to being a cul-de-sac, with crash barriers blocking it from By Pass Road, with maps suggesting that this was in the 1960s or 1970s.

1930s semi-detached bungalow (nos 3 - 4), with a two storey semi-detached house (no 1 - 2) beyond, on By Pass Road as it enters the Plough roundabout. The bypass was opened in August 1933. Unusually for this era, these houses (and the next pair off to the right of the photo) are numbered consecutively, rather than being only even or odd numbers.
