This rank of houses stands on the site of various orchards and garden grounds attached to Twerton Lower Farm including, on the west side, part of ‘Court Orchard’ mentioned above, and ‘Old Orchard’ next to Chilcott’s Buildings. The orchards were screened from the road by a high wall through which there was once a small gateway leading into the farm barton. The only other feature in the wall was a letter-box installed at the eastern end, apparently in the 1920s. When the wall was demolished for the present houses in 1963, the letter-box was removed to its present site in the wall of Clyde House.
