looking at the Unit Camus system for constructing houses and flats. Concrete panels are cast at the company's factory in Speke, before being transported to the building site at Queens Drive in Liverpool and slotted into place. Plans for the new factory in Kirkby are revealed, and also a finished block of flats in Liverpool. The first part sounds like the tv series, Mary Mungo and Midge, as Richard Baker provides the commentary

0:51 Those flats where at the junction of Derby lane Old Swan & Queens Drive Stoneycroft , Liverpool . Demolished approximately 15 years ago & now replaced with another block of flats . By the 90s they had deteriorated & looked tired & very shabby . There was a report that the flats suffered a considerable time of extreme bouts of intermittent poltergeist activity in the 90s right up to their demolition.

0,36 to 04 is a snapshot of Broad Lane in Southdene Kirkby and likely the 44d 544 or 500 bus that took that route. Sadly the new building method shown here was not successful. The properties built at Tower Hill in Kirkby were very unpopular with tenants, and were demolished in the mid 1980s The "Parker Morris" building design preferred by the Macmillan government when they built Speke and Kirkby have lasted over 70s years and proved great value for those who exercised the Right to Buy in the early 1980s. Liverpool City Council were responsible for the housing stock in Kirkby until 1974

Thin walls not enough insulation making them very cold to live in. Also the steel reinforcement was un treated also the concrete used was not waterproof this all came together causing concrete cancer caused by the steel rusting.

Then it was found most of them were missing many of the bolts that secured the panels together
