At the rear of 43-45 High Street at their junction with Green Lane are several buildings of varying but mostly late date. The rear of the printing works incorporates an earlier brick section but it is not of sufficient interest to justify its retention. The adjoining building has polychrome brick detailing on its gable ends. This is of local interest but again its retention in isolation would be anachronistic. These buildings reinforce the historic line of Green Lane but it is considered that they would only be worthy of retention if Green Lane itself was to be retained.
