These are flats over garages (FOGs in the jargon), one of several dwelling types on the estate. From this and another image it can be deduced that there are four flats in two pairs, each pair served by one street door and stair. There are thirteen garages. The block of flats is Selwyn House off Waterson Croft. It is one of many in the wider area known as North Solihull, of which Chelmsley Wood is part, first appearing on an OS map of 1971.
