Housing estate in Luther on BBC1....anyone know where it is?

[retrogeezer]

In London somewhere I guess, with cool walkways between blocks and it was also used in Gunrush with Tim Spall last year.Is it a derelict estate?? Looks like a great location.

Didn't see it, but I'd guess at Trellick or Balfron...

The one at the end, where he was kicked about by Lynch junior? Something with Hills in it I think...

Yeh, sorry - the one at the end. It was used in last weeks episode too. The crazy womans place is the barbican for sure.Just googled those and doesn't look like them. It doesn't look so high rise, just 5 or 6 floors with walkways between them.

I've done a bit of googling and I think it's probably the Aylesbury Estate or possibly the Ferrier Estate. Both look to be up for demolition and rebuilding.

Did it look at all like this place?

I didn't see either programme but the walkways sound a bit like the Ferrier Estate in Kidbrooke, which is largely empty and awaiting demolition.

Going by what I've read about it online, I wouldn't recommend sightseeing!

It didn't look quite as upmarket as that place in your google street pic, Mr E23. wherever it was, what a crackin' game of Russian Roulette that was. Almost.

I love that sort of architecture! The whole country would look like that if I had my way.Maybe I'm weird.
