Inside a British Council House in 1974

A room-by-room walk-through of a British council house in 1974, in the order a person would actually move through it. Nine spaces, from the front room nobody sat in to the pavement at the end of the path. 1974 does real work here. The three-day week ran from the first of January to the seventh of March, television closed down at half past ten at night until the eighth of February, and the shops ran out of candles. Inside: the front room kept for best, the twin tub, the scullery, the coin meter under the stairs, the club man and the catalogue, the shared bedroom, the immersion and the bath rota, the coal bunker, and the street at six in the morning.
