The 50s were a bad time for the UK. There was still post-war rationing, racism was rife (leading to riots), and good housing was scarce, many living in slums.

Yes looks like rationing continued into the 50s - but this encouraged backyard gardens - which I am all for.
However throughout the 50s the UK became one of the most industrialized nations in the world. Which was good for financial prosperity - but bad for the environment - pollution was terrible.
Good point once again makerhacks.
Have to go now though.

Hmm, you are a very patient man SK.
