Tottenham: A Century of Mass Housing with Adam Coleman Twitter/Instagram name @ajc1001 and photographs by John East
This ‘virtual walk’ visits four mass housing schemes in North London, designed and built from the 1880s to the 1980s. We begin at Noel Park, a speculative development of terraced homes in Wood Green built by the Artizans, Labourers & General Dwellings Company (1881-1913). Next, we visit Tower Gardens, one of four ‘cottage estates’ designed and built by the London County Council (1903-15 & 1920-27). We then jump forward 40 years to visit Broadwater Farm, a mixed development scheme by Haringey Council (1967-73). We finish at Ferry Lane, a low-rise scheme on the River Lea by the Greater London Council (1971-81). This is a virtual version of a tour that took place in 2019, developed in partnership with Homes for Haringey.
We’ll send you a Zoom link by email after you book, which will enable you to “join” the event, and we’ll be using the Q&A function to take questions. If you’ve not used Zoom before, clicking on the Zoom link will take you through the set up process, hopefully simply and smoothly! You should receive an automated link within an hour of booking so please check your spam/junk emails if you haven't received this. Any further problems please contact coordinator@c20society.org.uk.
The event is free but we welcome donations towards C20’s campaigning here.
