We look forward to welcoming back Dr Colin Cohen to discuss the “History and Architecture of Social Housing from Almshouses to Workhouses and Council Houses.”
How far back in history do almshouses go and are there any local ones?
What about the infamous Workhouse in Charles Dickens’ “Oliver Twist”? When did we move from the former to the start of Social Housing – did Octavia Hill, one of the Founders of the National Trust, play a part in this?
Come and find out on Tuesday 13th October, at 7.30pm, Lubenham Village Hall, Laughton Road, LE16 9TE
Entrance: Members £2.00, non-members £4.00
Don’t forget that we have an updated LHG website: www.lubenhamheritagegroup.co.uk
