Talk: Streets Paved with Gold? Immigrants in Victorian London

Nov 6, 2024

14:30 - 16:00

In the 19th century, over a million immigrants arrived in London from all over the world and elsewhere in the British Isles. Some were escaping from persecution, but all hoped for a better life for themselves and their families. As historical researcher Dr Frances Hurd explains in this talk, some of those London newcomers achieved their aspirations, but others were not so fortunate. 
Entry free for paid-up EPKPS members; visitors £3, payable at the door. All admission subject to the availability of seats on arrival.
