SteveHB Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 (Not even sure where Linacre Road is, so won't be bidding). Now Linburn Road (name change), looks to be numbers 12 & 14.

I'll bet that Vox would have fun and games fitting carpets in some of those rooms. The aerial view from Google shows the point well.

vox Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Not so common nowadays HD but most of our Edwardian terraces were built to cram in as many buildings as possible into the space. Where the streets cross each other at an angle, usually, the end ones have an angled wall to allow the middle properties to be more or less oblong, but sometimes the whole block is built at an angle, so rhomboid shaped rooms are common. Nightmare, especially when there's a patterned carpet involved. Look at these between Burton St, Bamforth St and Langsett Rd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at these between Burton St, Bamforth St and Langsett Rd odd shapes.jpg I take your point Vox, there are some interesting terraced properties towards the bottom of Western Road at Crookes. They were built alternating with two rooms wide at the front and one at the back and then next door has one room at the front and two at the back. The party walls have two right angled bends in them.

vox Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Here then. Never been in one of those HD, although I've worked in loads on the opposite side of the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
