Whups I understand now your only talking about the top end Hawthorn area, as by 1947 as I said the bottom half of the estate was well established by 1947, if I remember rightly they had even moved the mortar mixer off the croft to the top end, the houses were built with Mortar mixed on site,(crushed cinders, lime, cement, turned out blue-black cant remember them adding sand, Bert well know as it was almost in his back garden
