Date:1935
Description:Paradise Street in Newcastle-under-Lyme was one of the first areas to be demolished and its residents re-housed in new council housing after the Second World War. As the photograph shows the terraced housing in Newcastle was cramped, run down and deteriorating, it was without basic sanitation and the people that lived there were at risk of illness and disease. Many Paradise Street residents were moved to Beattie Avenue in the late 30s.
