The road layout here was clearly established at the end of the 19th century, but development was apparently slow and piecemeal, as there are a variety of housing styles.

Mapperley: Horology Terrace, Ransom Road
A terrace with an intriguing name at the Woodborough Road end of Ransom Road. It was built in 1894, as Image] shows.
Rob Noble has offered a possible explanation for the name: "The initials are suggestive of Francis Frederick Cope (1845-1901) of the Nottingham clockmaking firm G & F Cope. I'm not sure why this terrace is in Mapperley when the family was based in the Radford area, but I suppose as a successful businessman it is possible he would have invested his money in property across the city."
