About the Event
Bruce is well known to us and has given several talks in the past. His family has lived in Salop Street since the late 19th century. The Hong Kong was a part of the street now rebuilt as Salop House but which for 100 years was known by that name after it was used as a storage depot for a wholesale tea supplier from the far east. The talk will be a series of projected images and a few pieces of text which he will speak to, and invite others to respond to as well.
