These were built as covered railway sidings serving Monsted's Margarine factory and later Wall's, Batchelors Peas etc. The building was used for a time by a railway preservation society and the building was subsequently converted into small industrial units.

The Maypole Institute Hall. Built as a social institute and hall for the workers at the adjacent Maypole Dairy (Monsted Margarine factory). Another building that was requisitioned during WW! as a military hospital. It reverted to its original use as a community hall. During the 1960s it served as as a venue for many well known pop groups of that era. The building remains in use.

Kings Hall. A very unusual Methodist Hall built in 1916. It was operated for some years as a cinema before reverting in 1937 to a Methodist Hall. Since 2013 it has lain empty and derelict.

This was the site of the St Marylebone School, which was actually an annexe of the St Marylebone parish workhouse. The school was opened in 1860 and during WW1, the building was taken over for use as a military hospital for Australian soldiers. The school building was demolished by 1933. An underground civil defence bunker was built on the site and was operational during WW2. It was extended and modernised during the post WW2 Cold War period and was used as such until Hambrough Primary School was built on the site during the early 1980s. The remains of the civil defence bunker still exist beneath the school playground.
