The other flats wont be blown up due to their being too close to main sewage and water mains, got enough trouble up the road with b***** water in gas!!! Tenders are still up for grabs, but its my bet the same firm will do the others. When the utiliites are all hanging around that's when they will all be ready for the big demolition. Its gonna be mighty windy walking up Stavordale when ther're gone as the gap at present between the two seems to funnel the wind coming down the M53 and across the fields!!

Back in the 1980s we used to call The Heights "Broadcasting House". At one stage there were three AM pirate radio stations located there. Quite horrendous getting the equipment in there though as the blocks were also rampant with smack dealers and their low-life customers. Jegsy Dodd even did a song about it called "Welcome to Hillview Heights"

Remember these flats very well during the 1980s.

Sadly a friend took her life in the 80s from the heights, Angie Morris. Her Mum used to live in Bermuda Road and Angie used to work in Ye Olde Meadowbrook shop for Jace the owner. Was gutted when I found out she has died from jumping from the heights. God love her.
