Workmen assembling a Swedish prefabricated house, with an individual consulting construction plans in the foreground, 1945. It is difficult to determine where precisely these Swedish houses were constructed. However, the first Swedish houses in the UK were built in Abbots Langley, Hertfordshire, at some point on (or near) Trowley Rise.
