The road was developed in 1850-55 and is composed mostly of stucco mid-nineteenth century terraced houses, the majority of which are grade II listed with Historic England.[1][2][3][4]

The crime fiction writer Margery Allingham (1904-1966) lived at number 1 from 1916 to 1926 and a green plaque notes the fact.
