I'll be going along to this talk on tonight (7:45pm in the Golden Lion) and have taken the liberty of pasting some information on it from the diary section of this website below:
'Sources & Stories' local history talk. Admission £1 Local historian Steve Grindlay demonstrates how he uses documents, maps and other surviving material to reconstruct the history of Sydenham and the surrounding area.
Hope to see some fellow local history buffs there!
Hi Thomas
Unfortunately have prior engagement tonight otherwise would be keen to attend. I do hope Steve does a repeat.
I have lived in SE26/23 all my 59 years and very interested in its history.
ah, forgot about this....I'm in the Golden Lion tonight, but moving on to gara masala for dinner....then probably back to the pub. I'll miss the talk as I've arranged to eat about that sort of time
