Street name plates of Camden: an illustrated talk by Simon Morris

  • Camden Local Studies and Archives Centre, Holborn Library 32-38 Theobalds Road London, WC1X 8PA UK (map)

Simon has cycled round every street in the London Postal Districts (some 3000 miles), and photographed pre-1920 street name plates. He will talk about the historic street signs of Camden – where they are, how they were put up, and how residents reacted to them, placing them in a broader London context.

For CHS members unable to attend in person, we hope to live-stream this talk.

Admission: Free to CHS members. Non-members welcome (£2 at the door).
