Refurbishing of houses
Image: © Jonathan Thacker Taken: 14 May 2012
These houses in Spencer Avenue were built under a plan of Abercrombie in the 1920s and were quite advanced for their time. In recent years they have undergone a considerable amount of refurbishment. At present they appear to be having an exterior insulation applied which is then painted over. Here the painting is completed at first floor level but below the bare insulation material still shows. Note the temporary attaching of the satellite dish to the scaffolding.
