Airey Houses in St. Micheal's Lane
I have taken the spelling from the street sign. It is spelt in the more conventional way on the Satellite Map.
We always knew these houses as "pre-fabs". Airey houses were built after WW2 in rural areas as a solution to the poor condition of much of the housing stock outside Britain's conurbations. This was due to the 1930s depression.
