THE WORLD’S FIRST CITY: THE LEGACY AND LIFE OF VICTORIAN LONDON

How did people live in the great Imperial City? 1837-1901 was a period of radical change: suburbs, industry, commerce, speed, immigration and new lifestyles. Despite the emergence of a solid middle class, there were appalling divisions in the class structure. But so outstanding was progress that much of Victorian achievement remains the infrastructure of London today.


VICTORIAN GENTRIFICATION IN TYBURNIA - WALK

This walk will explore the area west of Marble Arch and Edgware Road, behind the Bayswater Road; this developed into a fashionable residential district openly laid out into squares, crescents and avenues, in which Connaught Square and Sussex Gardens are the focus.
