I used to live very close to Sandbourne - nightmare it was, with all the antisocial behaviour. I'll bet my ex-neighbours won't be sorry to see the back of it.

I'm guessing Sandbourne is being demolished bit by bit,due to its proximity to other properties, whereas Melrose & Thornridge can get blown-up, as there are open fields behind?

Haha. And the rest... blush

Those are amazing photos from the 13th floor, by the way. Keep them, they are part of history now.

my first ever flat was in sandbourne for 5 years in the early 90s and can honestly say it was an experiance and a half,, but looking back on it now i think it was too many people living too close together,, the sounds of people running up and down them halls at night and them sodden lifts opening and closing,, got stuck in them lifts about 3 times lol

I was shot outside Sandbourne many moons ago !! I'd been visiting someone who lived there and was in the car park outside and someone shot at me from one of the other flats. Hit me on the left side of my head and earnt me a few days in arrowe park. Needless to say I didn't visit that particular friend again smile
