Modern bungalows on the northern side of Masefield Vale, near the Drinkwater Gardens junction. For more than 50 years, until the early 21st century, the dwellings along Masefield Vale were prefabs (prefabricated bungalows). A total of 750 prefabs were erected in various parts of Newport to meet a severe housing shortage after the Second World War.
