This is a very mixed street with stone cottages and pubs at either end, a couple of large 19thC town houses, several stout 1930s semi-detached brick houses in the middle, plus one 1960s brick bungalow and one modern but very fitting stone cottage built into a very tight corner.<\/span><\/p>\n

A terrace was completed in late 2009, known as Brookfield View, which is five 2.5 story three bedroomed terraced units in natural stone having fine views across Sowcar meadow into trees on the far side of the valley.<\/span><\/p>\n

Around the turn of the 19th\/20thC Ingersley Road was known as Up Sowcar<\/em>, pronounced Sooker. This refers to Sowcar brook and meadow which runs alongside the road. <\/span><\/p>\n

In the 1841 census Ingersley Road was called Sowcar Road. By 1861 it was Sowcar Lane. Finally in 1971 it became Ingersley Road on the census.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
