Designed in 1954 as a wedding gift for his brother, Peter Womersley's Farnley Hey is one of Britain's most celebrated modernist homes, and it’s now on the market for £1.05 million. Drawing on Le Corbusier and Frank Lloyd Wright, Womersley created something strikingly un-English – at the time, the flat roofs, floor-to-ceiling glazing and open-plan interiors were more akin to California than the Pennines.

One of Britain’s most familiar new towns, Milton Keynes was incorporated in 1967 and laid out along modernist lines, with design and planning overseen by the Milton Keynes Development Corporation.
