Milford Towers is a social housing estate in Lewisham, south London, slated for demolition and described by its residents as ‘hell’. The residents accuse the council of ignoring them and deliberately running it into the ground. There are frequent leaks, mould infestations, fires, stabbings and violence â and perpetually broken lifts. The Guardian’s Adam Sich and Christopher Cherry spent a day there as residents announced that enough was enough, and united to challenge the council to finally start treating them as people.
