More Prefab Days – Belle Vale Remembers

Book 2

This book is the second collection of stories from The Belle Vale Prefab Project, following on from the success of the first book, Prefab Days (A Community Remembers), published in December 2006. More Prefab Days (Belle Vale Remembers) will be of interest as a stand alone book, but also to complement the first book.

In producing a second book, we knew how much we wanted to keep the human story that existed in the first book, but also to talk about the politics surrounding the Belle Vale Prefab Estate. The more you read about this unusual community and try to unravel why the memories here are so powrful, the more fascinating stories you find. The memories of this second book echo many in the first book, but also act as a companion, and much of the information provided attempts to fill gaps the group felt existed after the first publication.

More Prefab Days (Belle Vale Remembers) is an important social history of a unique community, and has recently became an important reference for students of both architecture and social history.
