History
The Forches estate was first built in 1948 as a Post-War slum re-homing estate. The houses were Cornish Unit Houses. The estate has since been redeveloped and the council owned Cornish unit Houses have been demolished and replaced, but privately owned Cornish Unit Houses have been bricked around for structural support.
