Natland Terrace was built in 1896 to house railway workers. It actually comprises two rows of terraces – one row each side of Hill Place built the following year. Both terraces were incorporated into the numbering of the newly-named Helmside Road in 1972.
Opposite the two terraces were allotments for the residents. The allotments backed on to the railway line with a ‘fence’ made of vertical sleepers.
