Westholm was developed just after the First World War to provide housing for rent at ’modest’ rates.
All of the ’Holms’ were streets developed north of the brook, begun by Sutcliffe and completed by Butler.
Architectural historian Miller highlights the dwellings in Westholm that are set back from the others, noting that "four bay windows of the four corners are set diagonally across each corner so that the corner pier serves also as the brick centre mullion of the bay."
