York’s Pre-fab Discus Bungalows
These pre-fab homes in York may soon be up for demolition to make way for modern housing. Built in 1975/76 the 100 buildings are known as ‘Discus Bungalows’. The wide structures are hard to photograph but I wanted to capture the unusual buildings before they are gone. I think they are lovely and particularly like the individual colours and open communal gardens.

- Palaces for the People: Prefabs in Post-war Britain the book that appears to be very hard to get hold of – I’m still trying.
very interesting, but I don’t agree with you
