Julia Onley Interview

Julia Onley Interview

We’re pleased to share another of our interviews of local residents with you. Back in 2012 Linda Hearnshaw interviewed Julia Onley, who had much to share about her childhood in Walworth, the local streets and shops (and, of course, Baldwins!). Take a listen below and enjoy!

More Herb Gardening

It’s feeling a little more like spring every day now – and we’ve been back in the herb garden at Art in the Park getting ready for it, clearing the beds for planting.

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.
