 Other nearby housing estates, Six Acres Estate, Harvist Estate, and Elthorne Estate were built when it was considered more viable to modernise rather than rebuild after the area suffered bomb damage some twenty five years earlier in World War II.The estate was subject to a 2007 ITV documentary in which a local MP, Ann Widdecombe, spent a night in one of the flats to highlight the supposed problem of youths causing trouble.The youth of Andover Estate then got together with a London film maker, Michelle Golding , to produce a film rebutting the Ann Widdecombe programme.
