On Quex View Road
A lime kiln once stood opposite Quex View Road, and a Royal College of Art lodger slept inside it
History

Two lost houses leave the sharpest traces: Pentire was a 1927 lodging address connected with the Royal College of Art, and Mine Head appeared as entry 67 in a county register. Mr Peppiatt commissioned a pair of houses here from the start.

Planning

Quex Estates commissioned seven houses here in 1921, then eight more followed in 1933. Later, rear-garden land behind No. 7 attracted a planning application, but a council assessment found multiple ownerships made development unlikely.

Geography

A very old lime kiln once occupied the low-lying Canterbury Road plot almost opposite the street's entrance. The junction's no-stopping zone extends 25 metres on the northern side.

Local colour

Quex Barn sits on the road and opens seven days a week. In 2005, Neville Hudson at number 76 coordinated museum-steward volunteers, expecting each to serve perhaps once a month.
