Compact housing

Illustrations from The Planning of a New Town, the GLC publication showing the designs for the unbuilt 60s new town of Hook, Hampshire. The book was first published in 1961 after the project was cancelled, and instead Basingstoke and Andover were extended. As a plan it was most similar to the Scottish new town of Cumbernauld. These are wonky iPhone photos of my copy.
