For the reason this area has a relatively low property value, if £100,000 for a typical terraced house can be considered low value, you'd have to look back to why so many houses were built for the immigrants who flooded in to the area seeking a better life for themselves and their families...in the nineteenth century.
And those immigrants came from mainly Ireland, but we've got our revenge we've sent um Gordie
