Prefab homes: The residents fighting eviction in Leeds - BBC Newsnight

In a suburb of Leeds, a group of 70 prefabricated houses has begun to attract national attention. They were built for miners in the 1950s - but now the company which now owns them, Pemberstone, wants to knock them down to build more modern homes. There's little doubt that the houses need modernising, but lots of the families which live in them, many of whom are on low incomes, don't want to lose their homes. Now, the Twentieth Century Society has weighed in, saying these houses in Leeds are among best examples left of this type of prefab home and should be kept.
