Date and time
Location
Online event
Join us as we delve into the past of our local area of Fleet Street, highlighting major changes that inspired London.
About this event
Fleet Street was once a beacon of newspapers in London where gossip, discussion and headlines where created. How did it start? Join Shoe Lane Library (located just off of Fleet Street itself!) to discuss the street's press history, how it inspired newspapers and how today's society read and interact with the printed media.
A Zoom link will be sent out to those who have registered via Eventbrite, along with some additional sources to look at before the event.
