Abstract
Parkleys was built between 1954 and 1956, the first of the estates by SPAN Developments Limited. A union between the architects Eric Lyons and Geoffrey Townsend, SPAN pioneered modern design in suburban housing. In recognition of its architectural importance, Parkleys was Grade II listed in 1998 by English Heritage and designated a Conservation Area in 2003. This booklet explains why Parkleys is important and what listing means for residents.
