Two tower blocks (Barwick to the left) in Shirehampton, built in the latter part of the 1960s. Barwick House has a few Huawei telecommunication masts atop. In the wake of the Grenfell Tower disaster, it emerged that the blocks are clad in some concerning materials but is considered a lower risk due to it fitting directly to the concrete walls.
