Doing Building Work: The Un-making of Red Road
The first, and tallest of the six point blocks and two slab blocks which comprise the 1,350-dwelling Red Road housing estate, Glasgow, was formally opened on 28 October 1966 by William Ross, the then Secretary of State for Scotland (accompanied by his wife). Its innovative construction consisted of steel frame, supporting five-inch laid-in-situ concrete floors, and asbestos-cement insulation board and fully compressed asbestos cement sheeting for the outer cladding of the building.
