Abstract
The U.K.'s residential housing stock is undergoing a transformation. In 2017, 20% of the national housing stock comprised flats. Over the next 25 years, it is estimated that flats in medium- or high-rise blocks will account for over 50% of new residential construction (Piddington, Nichol, Garrett and Custard, 2020).
