This view from the roundabout at the end of Hollington Road shows the start of Wigman Road, part of the huge expansion of the western suburbs after the war. The bungalows on the right were built on the foundations of the original Prefabs; further up were prefabricated BISF (British Iron & Steel Federation) semis, with their distinctive first-floor corrugated walling.
