Greenwich History
I found some local history resources whilst surfing:
gasworkstodome.org.uk
In their own words, “This website encourages people to both explore and contribute to the history of East Greenwich and the Greenwich Peninsula. We are looking at a period within living memory (1920’s to present day), using oral history and photographs.”
…and…
Greenwich Industrial History Society
…has the following aims and objectives:
1. To research the Industrial History of the Greenwich Area
2. To aid the publication of this research where appropriate
3. To hold a watching brief on industrial sites in the relevant area and to comment on any issues which might arise in the course of redevelopment, planning applications, etc.
Both are doing a worthy thing of attempting to preserve details of past lives and people.
