Houses in Manor Drive
Manor drive is numbered oddly. This side are all even numbers, with the yellow dormer being number 14, and the semidetached to its left being number 16 and 18. Numbers 20 and 22 do not exist. On the opposite side of the road are 41, 43, 43a, and 45.

Semi-detached splendour
Unlike the larger villas in Manor Drive these two are semi-detached, but still large houses for all that. An unusual feature is the arched "porchway" that gives access to the balcony on each.
One house has retained the original timber balustrade around the balcony, the other has retained the leaded windows.

Modern House
Amid the Edwardian splendour of Manor Drive, this 21st century house sits in the former garden of number 43, hence the 43a on the gatepost (which post matches the rest of the original plot, as well as others along here).
