The first two tower blocks on the estate were Cambria and Sara Houses, being the left and right ones respectively on the horizon here. These 15 storey residential tower blocks were approved for construction in 1964. Subsequently a further five 16 storey tower blocks were approved in 1967, one of which, Medina House, is in the foreground. The other four are Hamlet, Norvic, Pretoria and Verona Houses. Medina House is approximately 46 metres or about 150 feet high.
