Cussins

From Graces Guide
Prefabricated House.

1945 The Cussins Steel Framed House was designed by owner Philip Cussins who worked with a partner who was an engineer of ship anchors. As with all post war non-trads they were designed as a fast build but temporary solution to aid the shortage of housing following the end of World War II. The Cussin properties could be fully constructed and ready for occupancy in just 7 days.

Around 3,500 of these houses were built

Later partnership with Cornes in the 1960s.
