The estate at Dawson’s Heights was constructed between 1968 and 1972 and cost in total a little over £1.6 million to build.

Dawson's Heights, Overhill Road (1)
A landmark building due to its elevated position, its craggy, stepped silhouette appearing as a man-made extension to the hill atop which it stands. Its 300 flats, each with its own balcony, are in two parallel ranges separated by a green space. In contrast to many public housing projects of the time - it was built in 1964-72 - it is clad in brown brick. Designed by Southwark Architect's Department. A listing application in 2012 by the Twentieth Century Society was rejected despite being supported by English Heritage.
