Memories of Twickenham Riverside
This is a community project focused on the Twickenham Riverside sites below, which will celebrate the rich heritage of this area through an Oral History and collect the wealth of knowledge and memories from people that live or have lived in the area that should be recorded before they are lost.
If you have memories of the sites listed below or if you have memories passed down from family members perhaps you would like to share these with present and future generations. Any memorabilia such as post cards, photographs and cine film will be copied (then returned) as part of the project. The project output will be archived by the Council and it is hoped that a home for a permanent exhibition will be found.
