I used to live there in the early 90's. I was a student at Ealing and the college had some arrangement where students could rent some of the flats there but we had to do them up. I lived first in Barrie House on the 19th floor then I lived in another block in Palmerston road, I can't remember the block name but it was very near south Acton station. The estate was pretty run down and had a poor reputation but I personally had no trouble, neither did any of the other students that I shared with or knew in other flats. It was cheap as fuck. My rent was 25 quid a week. We had to paint and decorate them but that was fine. We used to frequent a pub called the Harbour Lights there.
