University of Sheffield historians Catherine Fletcher and Andrew Heath talk about Sheffield’s iconic Park Hill flats, shortlisted for the 2013 Stirling Prize for architecture the results of which will be announced on 26 September. What makes these flats special, and how do today’s debates about gentrification fit into the big historical picture?
