Milton Keynes Development Corporation. Architects Department
NOTES: Milton Keynes, which incorporated the existing towns of Bletchley, Wolverton and Stony Stratford along with another fifteen villages and farmland in between, was designated a new town in 1967 and planning control was thus taken from elected local authorities and delegated to the Milton Keynes Development Corporation (MKDC).
NOTES: This scheme for the London borough of Islington provided 268 houses, 132 flats, a sheltered home for the elderly, a community centre, a medical centre and shops.
NOTES: This extension was designed by the Architects' Co-Partnership for the London County Council. It is an example of the Medway MK5 system of prefabricated timber construction.
NOTES: Valentine Harding designed this house for his own occupation while a partner of Tecton. The chosen site was in an area where the local authorities allowed a low minimum height from floor to floor thus permitting the architect to design a low, horizontal building that merged well into its woodland setting.
