The complex of four 12 storey tower blocks, locally referred to as 'the 4 points' and three 4 storey super-blocks began construction in 1952 and was completed in 1956. The four tower blocks provided a total of 144 flats, and the entire estate was constructed by Whittall. Directly opposite was an older 6 storey block of flats which relied on coal heating called Carbrooke House. On the same Aston Hall Road, Normansell Tower was constructed which was 18 storeys high. Just across the railway track on Church Lane Osborne Tower was built which is 16 storeys high.
