180 years of Eastmoor: its people and their houses is a community project that will research and celebrate the architectural and social history of Eastmoor from the small Victorian settlement that was centred on Stanley Road, to the later council estate that was built in the 20th century. See https://harrisonarchitecturalheritage.co.uk/culturegrantswfd-230823 for full details.

This session is about the social history of Victorian Eastmoor. Research the neighbourhood’s residents using historic maps, the Twixt Aire and Calder photograph collection, Census records, newspaper archives and books.

Full support is provided so the session is suitable for all.
