Title: Stony Hall / Chauncy House flats, Sish Lane
Description: The Corporation built 110 flats on Sish Lane, known variously as 'Stony Hall', 'Stony Hall, Block C', 'Stoney Hall' and 'Chauncy House', as part of the first wave of housing developments, prior to the town's Master Plan being finalised. Initial plans were for 221 tall flats but this was reduced to 110 dwellings. The work did not start until Apr 1950 and was completed in the summer of 1952. The final design was for blocks of flats which were 7 storeys high. � �See also CNT/ST/793/40/10/17, a hand drawn sketch floor plan of a 4 bedroom type DS/1, 6 person house, which is drawn on the back of a copy plan entitled Stony Hall East Housing Site, which includes working drawings for 2 bedroom south aspect houses, BS/1, BS/1A and BT/1, plan ref no H/ 574, drawn by: LWA [Leslie Aked], date 14 Dec 1949 and including: front, back and end elevations; ground floor, first floor, foundation and roof plans; section plans
