 The
houses were let unfurnished but they came with certain fittings as standard.
The kitchen had a gas cooker, an enamel
sink and wooden draining board and there were red quarry tiles on the floor.The
living room, the bathroom and the hall, if there was one, were fitted with
pine wood block flooring.The bedrooms
had picture rails, as did the living room, and storage was provided by a
shelf in the kitchen, an airing cupboard in the bathroom and two fitted
cupboards on either side of the fireplace
in the living room. This was made out
of Welsh slate, painted to look like wood, and decorated with red and green
tiles. The bathroom had a bath, washbasin
and WC and fashionable nickel fittings, as did most speculative houses of
the period. |
