My grandad lived in Fountainwell (Eagle Heights) and some of my earliest memories are captured right here. This could be my favourite video on TH-cam. Thank you!
Wow this was literally like watching a childhood memory. All it needed was Clyde 1 on the radio, my old boy used to stay in that flat at 2:15 in the late 90s early 00s and the way you drove in and where you parked is the exact same as what I remember. So many memories from your video
My maternal grandfather was struck on the head and killed in 1965 when these flats were under construction. I never asked my grandmother which block he was working on. My mother was 11. Her sister wasn't even 2 years old. I can only imagine how hard it was back then. My gran passed almost 10 years ago and about 8 months before, she told us exactly what happened when my grandfather died. She'd never told anyone that story. I lived in Royston from 2008 until 2013.

Ideal for incoming migrants had GHA spent time and money on their upkeep. They didn’t and we are where we are.
