It is a Victorian and Edwardian residential area with many small public houses and shops, and is now favoured by students. It is home to a principal fire-station and formerly of Plymouth's two main hospitals, both recently demolished. It is a short walking distance from the city centre and sea front area as well as the university and Beaumont Park to the south.
