Charlton in the 18th Century: a rediscovered map and what we can learn

Join us for a fascinating exploration of life in Charlton during the late 18th century! 🎩✨ Our esteemed speaker, Barbara Holland, will present a newly conserved large-scale map from the London Archives, drawn between 1763 and 1767. This remarkable map details the land owned by the Maryon Wilson family, showcasing buildings, roads, field boundaries, and field names.

Through this map, along with insights from parish records, rate books, and various artworks, we will illuminate the everyday lives of those who called this parish home. 🏡📜

☕️ Enjoy complimentary tea, coffee, and biscuits after the talk!

💷 Admission: £3 for members, £5 for visitors.
