The shopping parade was built between 1960 and 1966 by Wallis, Finlay, Smith & Ball on the site of a house of some historic
interest called Fountainville.
The Victorian tennis authorities had suggested that the ball should be allowed to bounce twice to give the ladies time to get about the court, but the idea was rejected.
On the opposite side of the road is The Snooty Fox, once called The White Hart, which in the mid 19th century was enlarged to include assembly rooms, where fashionable balls were held.
