Description

Interiors of a flat in Gretney Walk, one of the high-rise, system-built blocks of flats in Hulme, Manchester, showing the infestation of cockroaches. A tenant, Tom, sits with his baby daughter talking about the seriousness of the cockroach infestation that has gone beyond this block and is now common across many houses and flats.
