HOUSING
STATISTICS
Your Chief Sanitary Inspector who is Rehousing Officer for the
Borough has supplied the statistics to be found in the appendix.
POST-WAR HOUSING
The erection of the 400 flat dwellings at Longbridge Road has been
proceeding as quickly as circumstances permit.
At the end of 1950 the Council was still awaiting a decision on land
in the southern part of the Borough where a suggested 1,500 house
estate is to be developed. Time presses in this matter because the completion
of Longbridge Road Estate will leave many young families who
need separate homes still waiting.
