This large development of block of flats, seen as a monstrous eyesore or 60s heritage depending on your standpoint, was given Grade II Listed status in 1998 but only now has the foreseen modernisation begun to see fruition. Here we see the north face of the building, which has been given a tidy-up and a splash of colour.
