| 770 | Maps - Hands On - one of the elements of an East of England SLP |
| 771 | Wood Green Potteries, Upshire. Waltham Abbey is in the Lea Valley, which has been associated with growing fruit, vegetables and flowers for the London market over many years. Wood Green Potteries belonged to friends of my husband so I have been lucky to have had access to the history of the Potteries and Upshire Hall, the house associated with them. I have found photographs of the workers and the premises which closed in 1964. |
| 772 | Winston Chruchill in Epping Forest. My interest in the topic was due to the tenuous link of our names and the surprise of learning that Winston Churchill was MP for the area. The project began as a tour of places within EFDC that Winston Churchill had been associated with but discussions with the museum led to the final display being a map indicating where he had been, using photos from their collection to annotate the map. The research included contact with many local historical groups, Conservative party and the Churchill Archives Centre in Cambridge. Winston Churchill’s young Conservative chairman in Woodford whilst he was MP, Tony Woodhead, also provided some valuable information from first-hand knowledge. |
