This walking tour takes participants on a journey through the history of British housing – led by architecturally-trained town planner Lachlan Anderson-Frank – using examples in and around Stoke Newington.
Originally a medieval village outside of London, Stoke Newington was rapidly absorbed into the expanding city as its population exploded in the early 19th century. The area, once filled with grand estates for the wealthy, was rapidly developed with Victorian housing including by Sir Thomas Cubitt, the Victorian developer of Belgravia, which feature in the tour.
