Are these houses still there?

houses are long gone , they where demolished in the early 90's except the hall wich ended up being set on fire by kids then demolished.the hall was in a really bad shape , i remember going in and the downstairs had collapsed into the cellars .when me and a friend had a look in the cellars there was a large grand piano down there - havent a clue how it got there .

I photographed these houses and Duck Pond Hall around 1988, they were all derelict by then and demolished soon after.
