LOUGHBOROUGH ESTATE, MINET ROAD, LOUGHBOROUGH JUNCTION

A tower block on the Loughborough Estate in Minet Road. Following World War II, the huge shortage of housing in London was met by large-scale developments like this award-winning housing estate built by the London County Council, with mixed density high and low-rise blocks of flats. The surrounding area had suffered considerable bomb damage during World War II.Digital image courtesy of Penelope Gretton.
