£15 (£10 YGs)

Dan Cruickshank, architectural historian, broadcaster and writer, will share with us his experiences of his heritage activism in the 1960s and 1970s. Alongside his distinguished career in the more academic fields of research and publication, Dan has been hugely influential in the preservation of Britain’s architectural fabric, often against the odds. His stories, enlivened by characters such as Dennis Severs and Sir John Betjeman chronicle militant levels of activism, the publication of The Rape of Britain and the birth of the Spitalfields Trust. These reminiscences will be brought to life by Dan’s remarkable personal archive of photographs which chart the tragedies and triumphs of Britain’s architectural heritage over the last 50 years.

The talks starts at 6.30pm, doors open from 6.15pm.
