As part of The Roots Project we have been training volunteers from Southwark Pensioners Centre to conduct and record interviews with local residents. These oral histories of local people are a wonderful view into their lives and the history of Walworth and Baldwins. We’re really excited to share the first of these interviews now, Mr...
The Roots was a Southwark Pensioners Centre project, run in partnership with Julia Honess and funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund, about the story of Walworth Road-based G. Baldwin and Co.
Working with volunteers from the local community, the project tells the story of Walworth Road based G. Baldwin & Co, one of the oldest and most established herbalists in London, and the many customers who have frequented the shop over its long history.
