New Talk Available: Sport Along The Wandle
This new talk takes you along the River Wandle looking at sports old, new and some which today we may find distasteful. From the hunting grounds of old to new modern stadiums there may well be something that will surprise you. All our talks are offered free of charges. Donations are welcomed.
Oral History Project
The museum would like to capture the memories of those who worked in the industries along the River Wandle. Did you work in one or have a relation who did? If you would like to share what you remember we would like to hear from you. Please call the museum (020 8648 0127) or send us an email (office@wandle.org) and we will get back to you to make arrangements to capture your part in history.
