List of large council estates in the UK
This list of large council estates in the United Kingdom includes estates generally considered to have a population in excess of 10,000 (although population figures are not compiled for many estates, as they do not usually correspond to local government units).
Becontree in Dagenham is generally considered to be the largest council estate (in terms of population), with Wythenshawe in Manchester the second largest. Gipton in Leeds is a contender for third largest.
