Visited during a Heritage Weekend in 2017, when two of them were open to the public. Some of the 4,000 temporary bungalows built in Birmingham between 1944 and 1949, most of which has since been replaced by more permanent housing. A row of 17 survive on Wake Green Road, of which 16 have listed building status. Some are still lived in. https://www.prefabmuseum.uk/
