Both the 50's and 60's saw a huge change in House building. New homes were going up everywhere and the 'Estates' became prominent both in private and Council properties.
The problem was that they were being built with a great sense of urgency and most of them were architectural disasters - especially the newly built Shopping Centres going up, albeit some where the Blitz had been bad.
A fine example of this was Canterbury, a beautiful City full of old buildings, history and the most important Religious point of the Anglican Church, the Cathedral.
The family were becoming less disciplined. Teenagers were allowed to 'hang loose' more and even the older ones appeared to accept the changes which were taking place.
The centre of the Sitting Room, now called 'Lounge', was the TV Set and Stereo system (late 60's).
