THE MAYOR’S LETTER
A big welcome to London this September
You’ve picked one of the best times to visit, as London’s Autumn
Season kicks off with a rich programme of culture. Totally Thames
festival is a highlight of the season – over the month and along the
42 miles of the Thames, there is a host of activities as we celebrate
our much-loved river. From beach walks to river tours, there are
loads of ways to learn about the gateway to our city.
London has always prided itself on being a global sporting capital.
American football comes to the capital as the NFL holds its
London Games Series at Wembley Stadium. Watch the Baltimore
Ravens take on the Jacksonville Jaguars and the New Orleans
Saints compete against the Miami Dolphins.
Meanwhile, more than 700 venues open their doors and welcome
visitors during Open House London, which marks 25 years. This
is your chance to explore the unexplored and see inside some of
London’s amazing buildings – take a tour around City Hall and enjoy
the views of the City and Tower Bridge. Have a great time in London!

RIVER FESTIVALS
MAKING
WAVES
London wouldn’t be what it is without
the River Thames, so it’s only right
that it’s celebrated once in a while.
The annual Totally Thames
festival (1-30 Sep) brings more
than 150 events to the capital,
from underground concerts
to illuminated art.
Totally Thames’ director
Adrian Evans says: ‘For our
20th birthday, we are exploring
the working river and the history
of the Thames’ boatyards through
spoken word and oral history, film and
photography. We’re also celebrating our
8
beautiful river with boat races, barge pulls, rallies,
paddleboarding – even a river swim!’
Taking the 300th anniversary
of Handel’s Water Music as
inspiration, composer Iain
Chambers is hosting Bascule
Chamber Concerts inside
Tower Bridge (22-24 Sep).
The concerts feature live
recordings of river sounds and
performances from clarinettist
Kate Romano and spoken word
Boat Poets
artist Kayo Chingonyi, while the
Franco-Cameroonian singer Coco
Mbassi performs a piece inspired by
boats carrying immigrants.

Rivers of the World exhibition

In keeping with the theme of river stories,
Working River: London’s Boatyards (1-30 Sep)
brings to life the history of the river’s boatyards
through oral history, film and photography, while
spoken word artists spend time on boats before
performing Boat Poets at the Royal Festival Hall
(6, 25 & 28 Sep). Don’t miss the Rivers of the
World exhibition at City Hall, either (1-30 Sep).
Another festival theme is plastic pollution. As
the World Economic Forum has predicted there
will be more plastic than fish in the sea by 2050,
Maria Arceohas collected a year’s worth of plastic
from 40 beaches along the Thames to create Future
Dust. The large-scale installation tours the river

The Great River Race
“Expect fancy

THE GREAT RIVER RACE
If you’re craving adrenaline, don’t miss The
Great River Race (9 Sep). At 21.6 miles (34.7km),
the contest is a virtual marathon on water. More
than 330 international crews take part as they
set sail from the Docklands in east London.
The teams pass under 10 bridges along the
way, including Tower Bridge, Chiswick, Kew
and Richmond, before a cannon announces the
winner at the end of the route in Ham, Surrey.
But the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race this
is not – so expect fancy dress, dragon boats and
face painting, before joining participants for
drinks in The Great River Race marquee by
Ham House. It’s a great day out for both
participants and spectators.

GERALD SCARFE
Gerald Scarfe has sketched everyone from Prince Charles to Pink
Floyd. Emma Levine interviews the artist who is redrawing London
t sounded complete nonsense to
me at the time,’ remarked Gerald
Scarfe, when the band Pink Floyd
asked him to create an animation
to accompany the album, film and
tour for The Wall in the late 1970s.
It’s not surprising that this seemed like an
out-of-the-blue request. The London-born Scarfe
has been best known for his sharp political
cartoons for more than half a century now.
In the true tradition of a caricature artist, his
work has been a constant commentary
on public figures, ever since his
first cartoons for the
satirical magazines Private
Eye and Punch in the 1960s.
‘When I first came to prominence,
they said I was the new Hogarth.
I could see what they meant,’ he
comments, referring to the English
18th-century satirical artist.
‘I believe it is important for satirical
art to be with us always. To be able
to question our leaders is a very
healthy state. I always think rather
like the old court jester, who was
able to poke fun at the king and was
able to make comments on behalf of the
common people. We have a great tradition
of satirical art in this country – examples
being Hogarth, Gillray, Cruikshank
and Rowlandson.’
“TO QUESTION
OUR LEADERS
IS HEALTHY”
14
LONDON CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF HIM
London is celebrating Scarfe. The House of
Illustration hosts Gerald Scarfe: Stage and
Screen (from 22 Sep). It turns the spotlight
on the theatrical side of this artist, exploring
lesser-known designs, from Hercules to The
Nutcracker. The Victoria and Albert Museum’s
Pink Floyd: Their Mortal Remains (to 1 Oct)
includes exhibits and interviews about the
album and film The Wall.
‘Mostly I’m known for my political cartoons, but
as people will see I have entered many other
worlds: rock and roll, opera, ballet, animation
and theatre. This explores those areas –
bringing my drawings to life, bringing them
off the page and breathing life into them
through theatre and animation,’ he says.
SCARFE DOES MORE THAN JUST
POLITICAL DRAWING
Scarfe is something of a Renaissance
man, as demonstrated by his diverse
career. Not only his collaboration with
Pink Floyd – ‘They might be rock gods,
but to me they were just regular guys’
– but in 1994 Disney approached
him to design the characters and
sets for the animated film Hercules.
Later, Tchaikovsky’s ballet The
Nutcracker courted controversy
before it was staged at the London
Coliseum, when Scarfe designed
killer mice with gas masks,
brandishing Kalashnikovs. ‘It is
a great escape from drawing the
same wretched politicians over
and over,’ he comments.

HE’S NICE TO HIS FANS!
As a precocious art student in 1987, I had the
pleasure of meeting my hero, Scarfe. While
studying his work, alongside other British
caricature art, I made an unannounced visit
to his west London home. He and his wife,
actress Jane Asher, welcomed me graciously
and showed me around his upstairs studio
where I was able to see his pieces.
The ever-imaginative Scarfe went 3D to create
one of my favourite pieces, Chairman Mao:
a sturdy, red leather armchair designed in the
form of the late Chinese leader, Chairman
Mao. It has overtones of Salvador Dali’s
sofa shaped like the mouth of Mae West
– although this has real bite to it.
HE HAS DRAWN THE
POLITICAL GREATS
He has attacked leaders with his
razor-sharp pen, mainly for The Sunday
Times for 44 years, from where he
recently retired. Nothing escapes his
scrutiny: one of his earliest pieces was
of Sir Winston Churchill looking frail in
the House of Commons in 1964. It was
deemed too controversial to publish in
The Times, but Private Eye put it on the
front cover when he died.
‘At the time I drew Churchill we, the
public, only knew his iconic image: the
bulldog with the cigar clenched within
his teeth facing the Hun from the white
cliffs of Dover. When
I went to draw him in
16
Murals in
Scarfe’s Bar
the House of Commons, it was the first time
I’d seen him, the icon, as now a shambling,
senile wreck helped into the chamber of the
House of Commons by young MPs. It was
a shock to see what he’d become.’
Margaret Thatcher was often portrayed ‘with
a stabbing, aquiline nose, drooping eyes and a
small mouth, full of bloody incisors,’ he describes
in an interview. Tony Blair was portrayed as an
evil-looking Ronald McDonald. Scarfe’s work is
often grotesque, and sometimes even obscene.
NOT EVERYONE LIKES HIS WORK
‘The cartoonist’s job is to be as truthful as
possible. In Private Eye they encouraged
me to attack. I’m happy to draw some of
these characters as pigs, or demons, or
whatever – that’s my job,’
Scarfe says. ‘I should be able to
attack anybody – although that
can be difficult at the moment,’ he
added, making a sombre reference
to the attacks on the French satirical
newspaper Charlie Hebdo in 2015.
But do his cartoons always meet with
approval? Some people balk at his
creations, including readers, publishers
and the subjects themselves. In 2013,
The Sunday Times publisher Rupert
Murdoch was forced to apologise when
Scarfe’s blood-splattered cartoon of
Israeli prime minister Benjamin
Netanyahu was deemed by many
to have crossed the line.

David Beckham, Harry Potter and James Bond.

as Scarfe comments: ‘I’ve had some politicians
write to me to ask for a copy of an offensive
cartoon I’ve done of them – maybe to hang up in
their toilet! Most prominent figures do not react
to their caricature, but perhaps they feel it is
beneath their dignity.’
But will there always be politicians who inspire
Scarfe to satirise? ‘The most memorable are
usually the wickedest – people like Richard Nixon,
Idi Amin, Enoch Powell, Tony Blair and George
Bush. And now there’s the frightful Donald Trump.’

LONDON PLANNER PROMOTION
Visit Greenwich this September for festivals, food and music
eptember is a time to make mellowing out
after a busy summer your main objective.
The trees are mellowing, the weather
is mellowing and if you’d like to be mellow
too, there’s no better way to start than with
a wonderful Sunday buffet brunch served with
bottomless Bellinis and a spectacular view at
the riverside Market Brasserie, InterContinental
London – The O2. Bottomless Bellinis! The hotel
22
is just around the corner from the Emirates Air
Line cable car on Greenwich Peninsula, so you
could combine your lunch with a flight across
the river, and more outstanding views.
This September is also your last chance to catch
up with BB-8 and his pals at Star Wars: Identities
at The O2 (to 3 Sep). It’s an amazing exhibition of
backstage props, costumes and memorabilia from
the epic film series, with an engrossing interactive

T
hey say a golden key can
open any door, but you
don’t even need a key to
take part in Open House
London (16-17 Sep; p. 50), a free
architecture and design festival.
The independent architecture
education organisation, OpenCity, has hosted the festival
since 1992, granting visitors
access to places that are not
usually open to the public.
Rory Olcayto, Open-City’s
director, says: ‘Open House
gives you the chance to explore
the city’s great buildings and
places that are usually off-limits.
From contemporary private
homes to super-tall skyscrapers
as well as hidden gems,
nothing is off-limits.’
In recent years, Crossrail
construction sites, embassies
and zero-carbon buildings
have taken part, as well as the
ArcelorMittal Orbit and archive
buildings in Kew Gardens.
More than 800 buildings are
taking part this year. The iconic
Tower 42 and 30 St Mary Axe
– better known as the Gherkin
(above) – are included again,
and you can also explore the
BT Tower and The Shard.
New for 2017 is a remodelled
Victorian railway cottage in
Wood Green, north London,
which has a moveable kitchen
to give residents’ flexibility
and a larger living area when
required. There’s also a 1980s
mews house in Camden that
has roof glazing above a winding
staircase, in the style of
a Moroccan riad.
Architects, engineers and
planners are on some sites to
answer your questions, while
children can do quiz trails and
get involved in architectural
model-making.
In addition to touring
the sites, you can enjoy free
bike rides, walks and tours
of construction sites and
regeneration projects.

CRAFT IN THE CAPITAL
W
hen the police are
alerted about a design
festival, due to the
crowd’s enthusiasm,
you know it’s an event worth
talking about. This happened
during the London Design
Festival (16-24 Sep) in 2006,
when Tom Dixon gave away
500 of his polystyrene chairs
to the public. The event
celebrates its 15th birthday
this year in eight design
districts across the city,
including Mayfair and Chelsea.
Since 2007, the festival has
commissioned designers
to construct a temporary
structure. This year, Villa
Walala is a huge, colourful
installation in Broadgate by
textile designer Camille Walala,
with stress squeeze balls
(www.londondesignfestival.com).
Designjunction (21-24 Sep)
brings cutting-edge exhibits to
the King’s Cross area. There’s
plenty for everyone to enjoy,
such as canalside Granary
Square’s installation of
Turkish ceramic pieces, in the
central fountain space, by more
than 30 ceramic designers
(www.thedesignjunction.co.uk).
Over in east London, The
Old Truman Brewery in Brick
Lane hosts another part of
the festival: London Design
Fair (21-24 Sep). Bringing
together 500 exhibitors
from 28 countries, it’s a vast
array of established brands,
independent designers and
exhibitions. On display are
contemporary examples
of lighting, furniture and
conceptual installations,
leaving you wondering if you
can find space in your home
for a chic Nordic lampshade or
whimsical sculpture from Italy
(www.londondesignfair.co.uk).
Look out for more displays,
events, tours, talks and
specially commissioned
installations across London’s
museums and galleries.

NEWYORKSTATEOFMIND
In an age of anti-establishment activism, the
exhibition Basquiat: Boom for Real at the
Barbican (from 21 Sep; p. 60) is timely. The
Brooklyn-born graffiti artist Jean-Michel
Basquiat, who died aged 27 in 1988, thrived in
Manhattan’s post-punk art scene when he was
a teenager. His vibrant, raw imagery – from
drawing with his own blood to collaging old
baseball cards – won the admiration of fellow
artists and led to a collaboration with Andy
Warhol. Basquiat even created murals for New
York’s nightclubs. This rare exhibition brings
together 100 of his works and is long overdue.

BACK TO LIFE
Ancient Siberia had frozen terrain and
fierce battles. No wonder then, that the
Scythians, a nomadic tribe who boasted
deadly weapons and great horseback skills,
were feared from southern Russia to China.
Scythians: Warriors of Ancient Siberia
at The British Museum (from 14 Sep;
p. 56) shows off archaeological discoveries,
literally frozen in time, dating back
2,500 years. See gold jewellery and gold
appliqué adorning clothes, clay death
masks to resemble the tattooed faces of
the deceased, and a leather bag containing
well-preserved 2,000-year-old cheese.

ART FOR HEART’S SAKE
From 16th-century anatomical pop-up books
to today’s plain packaging on cigarette
packets, design of medical products has had a
fundamental role in our lives. But when is that
seen as intrusive, and when is it a force for
good? At the Wellcome Collection, the
exhibition Can Graphic Design Save Your
Life? (from 7 Sep; p. 60) looks at the
relationship between design and health, from
hard-hitting posters such as the AIDS posters
of the 1980s, to comic books advocating safe
sex and Renaissance-era plague notices.

CRUEL
INTENTIONS
C
reepy musical box tunes,
doll-like make-up and a
bulging-eyed, gap-toothed
baby mask: welcome to
The Terrible Infants’ variety
show (from 27 Sep), back
following a stint at the
Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Les Enfants Terribles –
the team behind the renowned
Dinner with the Twits
and Alice’s Adventures
Underground – now presents
the award-winning, comical
musical at the world’s oldest
music hall, Wilton’s Music
Hall, to mark the show’s
10-year anniversary.
The Grade II-listed venue,
with its floorboards, arches
and original features, is a
suitable backdrop for this
Vaudeville-style show.
It’s co-directed by Oliver
Lansley and James Seager.
Seagar says: ‘We have wanted
to do a show at Wilton’s for
some time as it’s a magnificent,
beautiful building that suits the
company’s aesthetic
wonderfully. We’ve never done
the show in London – it’s been
to Australia, Singapore,
Poland, Norway, Germany,
Scotland and Malaysia.’
The Terrible Infants is a
collection of five interconnected
short stories by Lansley and
Sam Wyer. Dark, twisted and
surreal, the show blends
physical theatre with mime,
song and dance, alliteration
and rhyme.
The production has been
likened to the style of Roald
Dahl, Tim Burton and the
Brothers Grimm stories, and
is reminiscent of a carnival
or Gothic fairytale.
Dame Judi Dench provides a
recorded narration, as the cast
regales silly stories about cruel
children let loose from nursery.
This timeless show for kids and
adults is not to be missed.

Olivier and BAFTA-winner Juliet Stevenson
stars in Wings at the Young Vic (from 14 Sep;
p. 76). The British actress teams up with
director Natalie Abrahami once again after
they previously worked together on Happy
Days, also at the Young Vic. Originally a
radio play by Arthur Kopit, Wings premiered
on stage in the US in 1978, after which it
received Tony and Pulitzer nominations.
Stevenson plays a former pilot and
wingwalker, who has a
stroke and struggles
to cope with the
loss of her speech
and memory. Kopit
based the character
on patients he met
in a rehabilitation
centre after his
father had a stroke,
and captures her
sense of frustration
and disorientation
in this moving
monologue.

A WOMAN’S TOUCH
Shakespeare’s Globe stages a new play
about one of history’s earliest feminists.
Directed by Eleanor Rhode, Boudica
(from 8 Sep; p. 72) is a classic ancient drama
set in Britannia in AD 61, just as rebellion is
simmering at the edge of the Roman Empire.
When the king of Iceni, a semi-independent
kingdom, dies, he leaves his land to his wife,
Boudica, and the Roman emperor. But the
Romans ignore the king’s will, assault his
daughters and flog his widow before
banishing her from the kingdom. Strong
and independent, Boudica returns – with an
army hell-bent on revenge. With two fight
directors on board, expect real action.

A SORRY STATE
The Tony and Emmy Award-winner
Stockard Channing – best known as Rizzo
in the hit 1978 musical Grease – stars in
a revival of Apologia at Trafalgar Studios.
Directed by Jamie Lloyd, Apologia
is Alexi Kaye Campbell’s third play; he also
wrote Sunset at the Villa Thalia, which
premiered at the National Theatre earlier
this year. The play follows Kristin, a liberal
art historian who has recently published
her memoir. At a birthday party in Kristin’s
cottage, cracks in her relationships begin
to show, as her friends and family question
her achievements and whether they were
worth the sacrifices she made.

SPORT
KEEP ON PUSHING!
Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park
welcomes people of all abilities to
Parallel London (3 Sep; p. 83),
a series of runs, walks and races for
all. It’s a fun, mass participation
event where you can push your pals
in wheelchairs or kids in buggies,
with five courses, from 100m to
10km. It’s all about the taking part!
www.parallellondon.com
THE LIONS ROAR
It’s been a year since England
faced Slovakia in the World Cup
Qualifiers, and now it’s time for
the reverse match at Wembley
Stadium (4 Sep; p. 83). Both teams
stand a good chance of making
next year’s finals in Russia – but
as all pundits would say, nothing
is guaranteed in football.
www.wembleystadium.com
LP SEP SPORT.indd 82
S
ince American football
sprung on to the London
sporting stage in 2007,
the annual NFL (National
Football League) matches, held
at Wembley and Twickenham,
have gone from strength to
strength. All the tickets for the
matches in the International
Season here sell out, such is
the passion for the sport held
by US expats and ‘converts’.
London welcomes gridiron
teams from over the pond
to play four matches. At
Wembley Stadium (24 Sep),
the Baltimore Ravens make
their debut in the city facing
Jacksonville Jaguars – a team
that has played here every year
since 2013.
Three further matches see
New Orleans Saints against
Miami Dolphins at Wembley
(1 Oct), and at Twickenham, the
home of English rugby, Arizona
Cardinals vs LA Rams (22 Oct)
and Minnesota Vikings vs
Cleveland Browns (29 Oct).
TV audiences for the Super
Bowl have increased by more
than 75 per cent, and the UK
now has an NFL fan base of
more than 13 million. American
football is on our radar, now an
officially recognised sport in
UK universities and schools.
Super Bowl-winning
quarterback Kurt Warner, says:
‘We’ve seen an unbelievable
fan base here. Every time
we have a game here we are
amazed at the support in
London. Everyone would
be excited to see a possible
franchise – and a permanent
home here for the game.’

A GIRL’S BEST FRIEND
London’s iconic jeweller, De Beers,
has opened a new outlet in the
department store Harrods (p. 86).
‘We have designed this new space
with our local and international
clients in mind,’ says François
Delage, CEO of De Beers Diamond
Jewellers. You can create your own
bespoke ring by taking advantage
of the For You, Forever service.
L

this mother of a city that has
given birth to the three-piece
suit, bowler hat and trench coat.

showcase their collections
at London Fashion Week.
While many of the shows are

for men and women.

BRITAIN’S GOT TALENT
Michelin-starred restaurant
Sketch has celebrated artists ever
since it commissioned Martin
Creed to transform its interior.
It’s the venue for Kinetica Art fair
(to 9 Sep), showcasing electronic
and new media art.
9 Conduit St, W1S 2XG
RAISING THE STEAKS
True carnivores will love
Meatopia (1-3 Sep) in Tobacco
Dock, to watch top chefs and
butchers at work, and sample
meat cooked over logs or charcoal.
Meat also gets theatrical here,
with shows and demonstrations.
www.meatopia.co.uk
90
T
reat yourself to
contemporary British
cuisine at two new London
venues that show off some
of our creative young chefs.
Ollie Dabbous opened his
first restaurant, Dabbous,
in 2012 on Charlotte Street,
which quickly earned him
a Michelin star. His latest
venture is Henrietta in
Covent Garden’s boutique
hotel of the same name.
Here, Dabbous uses leaves,
sprigs of fresh herbs and
rainbow-hued flowers in
his seasonal dishes: starters
include a rich beef tartare
with nasturtium, and grilled
flatbread with sesame labneh
and spring blossoms. Should
you eat it or Instagram it?
Choose a main, perhaps
seven-year grass-fed
Simmental sirloin with crushed
green herbs, or charred salmon
with cockles, cucumber and
lovage. A flaky custard tart
packed with raspberries and
pickled rose petals keeps
the floral theme going – and
is divine (14-15 Henrietta St,
WC2E 8QH).
Another new opening is
Magpie, from Sam Herlihy
and James Ramsden. These
thirty-something chefs
founded Pidgin, a Michelinstarred supper club-turnedrestaurant in Hackney.
Their new place serves a
modern interpretation of dim
sum, with trolleys laden with
small plates wheeled around
to tables. Pick dishes to share,
such as grilled celeriac with
a watermelon barbecue sauce.
Save space for dessert – the
strawberry panzanella with
olive oil ice cream is amazing.
And to prove that the duo have
retained their fun side, there’s
a drinks trolley with cocktails
(10 Heddon St, W1B 4BX).
British chefs will always
make their mark on the city,
whatever their age.
– Emma Levine

a regeneration. The Stoke House, a vast loftstyle eatery with high ceilings, has opened with
rustic touches such as wooden crates bursting

Nightjar;
The Jazz Café;
Ronnie Scott’s
Whitechapel Gallery (p. 61),
known for its contemporary
art exhibitions, has recently
revamped its wining and dining.
The Refectory is a café by day,
but after hours it transforms into
an informal wine bar (Thur-Sat
6pm-11pm), serving rare bottles
of wine from private cellars and
auctions. There are also tutored
wine tastings on alternate Friday
evenings – you can also tuck into
small plates while you’re there.
L
ondon is a world player
on the jazz scene with
50-year-old established
venues and many more
young, pioneering ones. As the
capital loses many of its music
venues, it has become a priority
for the Mayor of London, Sadiq
Khan, to promote smaller ones.
Step back in time at famous
jazz club Ronnie Scott’s
(p. 102). Going strong since
1959, it has welcomed all the
greats over the years, including
Miles Davis and Charlie Parker.
The informal Upstairs@
Ronnie’s bar and club is open
until 3am, with events from
jive nights to poetry slams.
Reminiscent of an old-school
speakeasy, you’ll want to wear
your dancing shoes at
Nightjar. Soak in the 1920s
ambience sitting at a tiny
candlelit table where your
orders for food and drinks are
taken– no queuing up at a busy
bar. Jazz or swing bands play
nightly, and there are sets after
midnight at the weekend
(129 City Rd, EC1V 1JB).
Vortex Jazz Club in Dalston
has won over jazz fans with its
high-quality live shows in an
informal setting. The volunteerrun venue keeps costs low,
aiming to bring jazz to the
masses and nurture new talent
(11 Gillett Square, N16 8AZ).
The Jazz Café in Camden
has more of a nightclub feel,
especially its DJ club nights
Night Thing (Fri) and Soul
City (Sat). You can dance
in the standing area, or
take a seat in the restaurant
that overlooks the stage
(5 Parkway, NW1 7PG).

Enjoy Heritage Open Days festival with a visit to a building steeped
in history – and rarely open to the public, says Alex Wellington
I
f you travel outside London on the weekend
of 7-10 September you’ll find an extra-warm
welcome. As part of the annual Heritage
Open Days festival, 5,000 special
events across the country see the
doors opened to fascinating
buildings that are usually closed,
from artists’ studios to
nuclear bunkers.
Annie Reilly, an American,
went to her first Heritage Open
Days weekend 10 years ago and
was immediately hooked. A decade
later, she is now the manager of
Heritage Open Days, bringing to it her
immense personal enthusiasm as well as
professional skills.
‘I came to the UK to get a master’s degree in
Guildford, landed at the house I was living at,
terribly jet-lagged, and had this real “what have
I done with my life?” moment. I just had to go
out for a walk. So I went to the city centre, where
I found all this pink bunting strung up, ‘Open’
signs everywhere and people saying ‘Come in,
it’s free’.
104
‘I went into Abbot’s Hospital, a Jacobean
almshouse founded in 1619 – amazingly, it is
still being used as social housing. Then I
crossed the street to the Royal Grammar
School, which has one of the few
chained libraries left in Britain,
where the books are physically
chained to the wall. It was
wonderful to wander through the
town, seeing these amazing
sights. I have this slight American
thing of being shocked just to find
anything that is more than 300
years old, but I was also so impressed
by the enthusiasm of the volunteers
opening up their doors and giving up their time
to talk about what Guildford has that is special.
I became an avid fan, and went every year.’

OPENING THIS YEAR
New to the packed programme this year, and
accessible only during Heritage Open Days,
is England’s first mosque, in Liverpool. It was
founded by Abdullah Quilliam, who converted
to Islam in 1887, and was subsequently used
as the Liverpool Records Office.
Also new and exclusive is Strawberry Studios
in Stockport, Cheshire, where from 1968 to 1993
hundreds of musical artists recorded, including
Joy Division and The Smiths. Explore the
archives of Gieves & Hawkes in Winchester,
Hampshire, the tailor which has dressed every
British sovereign since George III and gaze on a
Hampshire Regiment colonel’s jacket once worn
by Diana, Princess of Wales; and visit a nuclear
bunker built in the centre of a 4,000-year-old
COLCHESTER
Colchester in Essex was once the Roman
capital of Britain, and is home to two of
the five Roman theatres in the country.
As part of Heritage Open Days, you can
visit Colchester Castle Museum. It was
built on the foundations of the Roman
Temple of Claudius: book in advance
for a tour of its vaults, and don’t miss
the recently discovered Fenwick Hoard
of Roman jewellery. You can also visit
a Roman burial barrow, excavated just
before World War I. Voyaging through the
ages, visit St John’s Abbey Gate,
built in the early 15th century.
Churches to visit as part
of Heritage Open Days
include Saint Peter’s, with
its medieval features
and a fine pulpit; and
St Leonard at the Hythe,
which hosts history
tours and organ recitals.

More underground intrigue is to be had in the
secret tunnels of Saltaire World Heritage Site
in West Yorkshire, opening to the public for the
first time. The two tunnels underneath Victoria
Road and Exhibition Road were used by the
students of Shipley College and the workers at
Salts Mill in the late 18th century. Families with
children might appreciate another kind of secret
history: Stinky Tudors explores the questionable
hygiene of the age. Discover why Elizabeth I’s

HISTORIC HOMES
Historic houses include Arundells in Salisbury,
Wiltshire, the home of former Prime Minister Sir
Edward Heath, which has been unchanged since
he lived there and filled with gifts from world
leaders alongside great works of art. Belmont in
Lyme Regis, Dorset, was where the great writer
John Fowles lived and worked, and boasts a
Victorian observatory tower with revolving roof,
and a wild garden tumbling down to the esplanade
