Two blocks, Sandybank Court and Chapman Court were demolished using a highreach excavator.
Due to the location of Fields Court, situated near the main line Railway station and adjacent residential properties the tower block was demolished using the "floor by floor deconstruction method" so as to reduce any risks.
On Sunday 22nd April 2001 the remaining four tower blocks (Underwood, Honiton, Hattersley and Waterside Courts) were demolished using explosives.

I cant believe that its almost 10 years since the eyesores were pulled down. Hattersley looks a lot nicer without them.
