IT'S ONE of Southampton's largest estates - and plans are afoot to transform it once more.

However, Millbrook has a history of change, especially throughout the 20th century.

Southampton City Council's new plans for Millbrook Estate have not been universally acclaimed.

Up to 500 new homes are proposed - but they would not be the first time a huge development has taken place there.

From the construction of the Estate, the new main road and numerous pubs closing down, Millbrook has been evolving at a huge rate over the decades.

Here the Daily Echo has a small selection of photos from around the area showing how it has transformed.

If you have any that you think could be added to this gallery, send them into jez.gale@dailyecho.co.uk and we'll add them to the gallery.

We also have galleries of other areas of Southampton from years gone by, too.
