History: How we used to Live 鈥 Social Housing

This course will give you an outline of the history of social housing in Britain over the last 200 years. Housing became a huge issue as a result of the Industrial Revolution as Britain鈥檚 industrial cities expanded and thousands of low-paid workers looked for somewhere to live. We will look at a range of 鈥榓nswers鈥 to this problem from cheap housing that rapidly turned into overcrowded slums to model villages built by some factory owners to house their workforce. Then we will explore the development of slum clearance and council housing schemes in the 20th century, before looking at possible causes and solutions for the current housing shortages.
