T-Time Talk: Holmwood Common: Uses and Abuses through the centuries with historian Kathy Atherton
For 1000 years the Common has been a resource for the communities surrounding it. That it was created was down to human necessity; that it survived was down to the interplay of politics and economics. The history of the Common is a social history of Surrey. This talk will examine how the Common came into being, how it has been used and abused and the part it played (and continues to play) in the lives of those who live around it.
Please note:
- Standard admission charges apply to non-members on arrival.
- Please meet at Leith Hill Place, Terrace Room.
- Disabled parking at the front of the house.
- Under 18's must be accompanied by an adult.
