When first handed over to the Navy in 1969, the houses of Churchill Estate provided "married quarters for men of the Polaris Force and the Clyde Submarine Base" ["The Naval Review", Vol LVII, No 4, October 1969]. See Image for another part of the estate. The street names are naval in character: Nelson Place, Jellicoe Place, Rodney Place, and so on. The present picture shows Winston Road, which runs round the outside of Churchill Estate (those names also fit the naval theme: Churchill was appointed First Lord of the Admiralty in 1911).
