Abstract
From the late 1950s to the late 1970s the use of industrialised methods of building in the U.K. took place almost entirely in the public sector: local authorities and new towns. Having first established this proposition, the paper continues to describe in quantitative terms: (i) the proportion of all local authority housing built by industrialised methods; (ii) the distribution of industrialised building among regions and local authorities; (iii) the type of dwelling produced in relation to the form of the building, the method of construction and the material used; (iv) the major systems involved, and finally (v) the costs. A summary of the major findings of such a quantitative analysis may be found in the conclusions.
