This early 1950s housing in Wednesfield was built as overspill for neighbouring Wolverhampton. Lack of available building land within the town led to agreement with the adjoining Urban Districts to develop new estates. The first of these three-storey blocks opened in June 1955. Some of these Districts were absorbed into the town with local government boundary changes in 1967.
