Wolverhampton Council purchased the Oldfallings and Showell Estates for housing after the Great War. These were developed into large housing estates between 1924 and 1927. The house designs were similar to those used at the small development at Sweetman Street in 1923. Image Various renovation schemes have been carried out with plastic cladding attached to the upper storey.
