Three large uniquely designed triangular buildings rise into the sky on the estate, named Didbin, Noll and Docura Houses respectively, after local architects.
Nearby Elthorne Estate was designed quite similarly in the mid-1970s but unlike Andover's three big blocks didn't have any high rise development.
The estate was subject to a 2007 ITV documentary in which an MP, Ann Widdecombe, spent a night in one of the flats to highlight the supposed problem of youths causing trouble.
The estate has various well known residents in former EastEnders TV actor Marc Bannerman, renowned close-up magician and artiste Fay Presto also lived there for over 25 years.
One half of popular house / garage music duo Truesteppers, Andy Lysandrou grew up on Andover Estate as well.
