The plot (1078), incuding 24-27 Downeshead Lane and Buller Square, is shown on the Tithe Map but there is no record in the Apportionment and no buildings are shown on the map. However, Buller Square is considered to be late 16th century in origin with the front, brick building of No. 24 being added in the early 19th century.
