I saw it too - very interesting. Says a lot about social housing policy in the 70s. And now they're pulling down all those 70s blocks which are falling to bits, while the Georgian and Victorian stuff is all being restored and goes for a fortune. Also about creating ghettoes of social housing - an attlitude which is fortunately changing, with new estates being built mixed with shared ownership and properties for sale.

Camberwell New Road next week!
