Brick cottages on Works Lane, Barnstone
There are several small blocks of old workers' cottages on Works Lane, built for employees of the cement works which started up in 1885. These are numbers 2 and 4. Where there was once fields in between there are now modern houses, a classic case of in-fill development.
