Demolition (or better: deconstruction) of Knightsbridge Court starts. On an image from December 2009 it looks like that the house was in a scaffold already, but the resolution of this image is insuffiecient.

So the demolition date is set to December 2009.

Photos of the Barker Road station of the Peak Tram. The old photo is from the 1910s, the others are from 2008.

On the old one Glenshiel is visible behind the tracks, this likely sets the date to about 1915. On the 2008 one Epworth Lodge can be seen.

The houses were finished in November 2013 - when the first of seven houses was sold.
