This uses a different prefabrication system to the one shown in http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2558852. Here the upper storey framework is clad with hung tiles. The right hand house of the pair has been re-clad with brick at some stage, as have most of its fellows, leaving this as one of the few original examples. Prefabricated houses were extensively used by the National Coal Board in the post war era of colliery development.
