Are you interested in the history of Lee since World War II? Paul Wright, an historian with the Blackheath Society, will be the guest speaker at the Annual General Meeting of the Lee Manor Society on October 1st.
Mr Wright’s illustrated talk will focus on the area around Boone Street and Church Street, north of Lee High Road, which was a densely populated, poor area before the war. It was heavily bombed by the Luftwaffe. In the 1950s a programme of slum clearance and demolition razed the remaining houses to the ground and replaced them with a new housing estate.
Full details of the AGM can be found here. All are welcome and attendance is free!
