A remarkable row of 17 immediate post-war prefabricated houses, all of these being the Phoenix steel-framed 'Portal' bungalow model. All bar one were Grade II listed in 1998, and https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101022581-419-wake-green-road-springfield-ward#.WxLTx9QrLGg gives a typical history and description of the row. See Image for a closer view of one particularly good example.
