An illustrated talk on the history of riots in London will take place at All Saints Church on 11 January.
“We will look at riots going back to the Massacre of the Jews in 1189. We will trace common themes and causes in London’s riots and discover that the riots of the past, such as the Gordon Riots of 1780, have much in common with, say, the Brixton Riots of 1981,” said historian Nick Dobson. Hosted by the National Trust’s Woodford and District Centre, the event will take place in the church hall from 2.30pm (visitors: £3).
