Possibly the only prefab remaining in Newport
A total of 750 prefabs (prefabricated bungalows) were erected in various parts of Newport to meet a severe housing shortage after the Second World War.
I had thought that all the prefabs in Newport had been demolished, but I was delighted to stumble upon this one on the edge of a new Bovis development on the south side of Allt-yr-yn Avenue. It has probably been kept for historical reasons. The accommodation looks very basic by modern standards, but compared with the unsanitary conditions in slums in the immediate postwar years of the mid to late 1940s, or the alternative of having to live in overcrowded existing housing, these prefabs must have been a highly desirable choice.
