Description:Rowley Avenue is in Rowley Park, which once formed part of the Rowley Hall estate.

The estate was bought by the Stafford Land Building and Improvement Company in 1866. The company built a model suburb, which was to have its own church and pleasure gardens. The scheme was not successful and the company was wound up in 1871.

Today the gardens still exist.
