I think the Calbourne Rd prefabs had gone by then. The five on Ravenslea Rd were three in Wandsworth and two in Battersea so didn't get redeveloped until the boundaries changed with the introduction of the GLC.
We also collecting dung from the horse-drawn carts especially from the regular visits by the milkman daily and the dustcart weekly.
