This house was the first four-bedroom house to be handed over to tenants on the Leyfields estate. It was one of 563 Easiform houses being constructed as part of Tamworth's scheme to house some of Birmingham's overspill population. 'Easiform' was a method of in situ pre-cast concrete construction which John Laing and Son Ltd developed from 1919 onwards.
This image was catalogued as part of the Breaking New Ground Project in partnership with the John Laing Charitable Trust in 2019-20.
