Thursday, 10th July, 7 for 7.15pm
Meet at The Bakehouse, Bennett Park, SE3 9RA
Exactly 200 years ago a Greenwich clockmaker called John Bennett acquired an area of land that was subsequently developed as Bennett Park and part of the Blackheath Village that we know today. Paul Wright will give a richly illustrated talk on the colourful Bennett family, the development of this part of Blackheath and some of the fascinating characters who have lived and worked in the street named after them including pioneers of astrophysics and documentary film making and a renowned saucy postcard artist.
