Dist:0.2km<br/>Unlike the areas to the west of Caledonian Road and south of Copenhagen Street (which are now occupied by local authority built housing estates), this area has retained its 19th century houses. The attractive terraces were extensively bought up and renovated by middle-class incomers from the 1970s onwards, a process referred to as gentrification. Thornhill Crescent curves round St Andrew's Church at the north end of Thornhill Square.
