There are a number of blocks of these social house (council) flats along The Meadway, built in the 1960's as Reading expanded rapidly to the west. Attempts have been made recently to make them more attractive with coloured blocks of paintwork but if anything they now look more austere and quite threatening being raised a little bit above the road.
