But i'm with you on this - the importance of post-war housing is often overlooked without proper attention being paid to how it shaped our lives today. We have two surviving rows of the prefab or "tin can" houses where I grew up but so few are left now. Have you contacted the Twentieth Century Society for advice they were specifically set up to preserve built heritage from 1914 onwards so are worth disscussing things with. And dont forget you can always put something forward for listing if you think it is important
