Red brick houses

Here is picture of one of our boroughs, with rows of Victorian period ¨by law¨ working class houses.
Today, this is the most popular relocating point in our town for new families coming from other places around the county.
This is solid, red brick built classic housing, the most ¨modern¨ one in Keinshire, as our town is a Middle Age founded one.
In WWII, even Keinshire was a bit too far for German bombers, we suffered several attacks from the Luftwaffe and we lost many of these beauties during the Blitz.
But the incredible fact is that many of the remaining houses who escaped from the German attacks were insanely close of being demolished by our own politicians, burocrats and real estate speculators.
Yes, we do also have that kind of neighbours around here, it seems the there´s no town small enough to be free of that bunch of bastards who doesn´t hesitate to destroy British Heritage while they earn some thousand pounds in the process.
Fortunately, many young professional people moved recently from other county cities to our town where these houses are a more colorful and sensitive place to live with their families. Even more, the houses are cheaper than the heartless apartments where they used to live before.
It´s glad to see how much they care of their new homes, wich were built for poor working class people in the 19th Century, as they decorate their interiors with a modern taste and set up all kind of details with the upmost technology.
