A view of the block from Kingsway rather than across the lawns. Built in 1934 on the site of the eastern end of Mills Terrace which had been constructed in the 1820s and demolished in 1899. It would take three decades for the site to be redeveloped. The flats were requisitioned by the Admiralty during the Second World War.
