100 Years of Mile Cross in association with The Common Lot

Norwich is home to the oldest and most impressive purpose-built social housing estates in the country – the Mile Cross estate.

Throughout 2023, Mile Cross’s centenary year, a team of local citizen researchers found people with great stories to tell of the area’s rich history.

Future Radio’s very own Clive Williams has curated the best of those amazing aural histories, from beginnings to bombings and from bold architecture to brilliant individuals.

Join Clive for a journey through the history of the people and places of the oldest purpose-built social housing estate in the UK – and it’s right here in Norwich!
