One of the five tower blocks belonging to the Chalcots estate originally built in the 1960s. The building suffered a small fire in 2012 that was contained to a single unit.

All five tower blocks were evacuated on 23 June 2017, amid fears that the thermal cladding was not fire resistant. These evacuations followed the Grenfell Tower fire disaster earlier that month which had similar cladding.
