Yeah, I spoke to my parents about this today. Apparently the street used to be part of a sports complex, and was sold to a developer in the 60s or 70s. They recall being given the option to buy the lease for £400 in the late 80s, the same option being given to all other residents. Some residents took up the offer, others didn't. They think the next street is possibly owned by the council as it has a few council houses on it.
