Eldon Grove was used as a film set in the TV adaptation of War of the Worlds a few years back. It stood in for a devastated turn-of-the-century suburb. There are photos of it on the Echo site.

This estate would benefit from the £1 home schemes previously used in Liverpool, and elsewhere. Its of a higher quality than the older terraced houses too. Given the view, it will still be a des res location. Particularly with current housing shortage.
