    As depressing as this is to see, thank you for filming. My Granddad Kaye was one of the last residents to leave. My Grandmother passed there a few years earlier. She was of the Ingmans, who grew up in the Quarry hill flats! Have many pleasant memories of those Highways stairwells, either racing my brother up or down them. And happiest memories of visits with tea and biscuits, watching trains and foxcubs, even as an adult lol. Residents were lovely and quite a wholesome community. Very sad to see them go.

      All residents seemed to be nice the ones that i met when i was working in the block its such a shame the blocks have to go as theres a lot of other blocks not due for demo where the tenants are not so good,

      All 3 blocks now stripped out fully ready for demolition, over the last 3 years though i have taken quite a lot of pics from inside and outside the buildings and shows a decline from when only a few flats were empty and the blocks still in good condition to 1 person left and very vandalised

    I thought they would have took the lifts out it looks like they were simply turned off as they were

      Lifts left in and now completely destroyed, just like they did 20 years ago in other blocks demolished and those lifts were only a few years old

      @@666Anonymous0 cannot remove a lift or mechanism and guarantee it on the next job..
      insurance and paperwork wont allow it. Has to be new.
      may have cost £60k but all its worth is scrap. £1k in weight that the demo crew salvage for doing the job..
      good ole LCC spending wisely

      more old people really.
      They dont do many ram raids or snatch and grabs on mopeds like giptonites do.
      They do like to steal cats and over feed them though!!
      I`d say its a crime but the cats say neeuwww gimme more!! so granny does !

    Would be better with a commentary rather than just heavy breathing
