Default Re: When were ring mains introduced in domestic housing?

My dads house was built in 1954 in 2-core VR cable, 13A switched sockets recessed into the skirting boards (no back box) and seperate bare earth wire. Radial wiring with each room fed from a rewireable fuseway in a 'Kantark' hardwood fuseboard.
I'm kind of ashamed that is is still like that....
