Facts
4.Mackworth is a suburb on the west outskirts of Derby, some two miles from the city centre. Originally a local authority housing estate, much of Mackworth is now in owner-occupation through the Right-to-Buy scheme. In the 1950’s the former Borough Council disposed of a series of plots in the south-west corner of Mackworth on long-term building leases, with each lease benefitting from mutual covenants.5.Plots 186 and 187 on the south side of Muswell Road were let together to Mr John Wagg under a lease dated 29 October 1958. While this was a double plot, Mr Wagg built one house – now known as 39 Muswell Road – the majority of which was on plot 187, but part of which, together with an outbuilding, was on plot 186.
