A "quiet" Georgian street where houses are rarely up for sale is "like living in EastEnders".
The row of mainly two-bedroom houses with basements in the Georgian Quarter were "derelict", with only "Victorian toilets" out back, when Cathy Price moved here as a 19-year-old in 1971. The retired mental health support worker said: "There was only one car. That was Mr O'Connor in number 20, he had a car. Now, some of them have got three."
In the 1980s, Cathy said the street's residents grouped together to install Victorian lamp posts, painted black to match the railings. Cathy, who sent her kids to the now abandoned St Margaret of Antioch School just two streets over, would love to buy her housing association house. But, she said: "We got it done up and then we outpriced ourselves out of the market."
