Event Details
Goldsmiths historian, Dr John Price, invites you on a walking tour exploring Victorian Deptford through the eyes of social investigator Charles Booth and his famous poverty map
Drawing directly from Booth’s original notebooks, John will take you on a partial re-creation of one of the walks around Deptford in 1899. Walking the route today not only provides a valuable opportunity to reengage with the historical context, it also highlights the developing and ever-evolving nature of the modern city.
