Bramston Street (A643), Rastrick

This road was made in the late 19C. It was as a wider, better graded route than Thornhill Road, which was originally a private road belonging to the Thornhill estate. In the mid-20C Bramston Street was 'promoted' to A road status, replacing Rastrick Common / Bridge End. From old maps it seems that the modern houses on the left were built on a vacant hillside, and did not replace old slum houses.
