Flatts Lane, Calverton
Housing in Calverton has recently expanded northwards along the northern half of Flatts Lane (north of Park Road). The contrived variety and attempted Georgian styling seem typical of housing built in the last few years.

One of the historic thoroughfares out of the old village, it marks the eastern boundary of the western housing estate built for the colliery which opened in the 1950s. Housing on the left hand (eastern) side is later, private, development.

Prefabricated housing, Calverton
When Calverton expanded westwards in the 1950s to provide housing for miners (employed at the colliery which opened in 1952), some semi detached prefabs were erected as part of the expansion. While some are still substantially as built, at least one of every pair I saw has been modernised with a new outer wall; this odd looking pair is thus typical of this part of the village. These houses front onto a small green off Labray Road.
