SUMMARY:LINKED - an audio trail
DESCRIPTION:LINKED is Graeme Miller’s seminal radio installation/sound walk about the M11 installed on lampposts across 3 miles of East London. \nSaturday 27 September\n11am – 5pm \nPick-up point for radio receiver\, headphones & map: \nWanstead Library\nSpratt Hall Rd\nLondon E11 2RQ \nFREE\nFor ages 12+ \nLINKED is a radio installation/sound walk by Graeme Miller installed on lampposts across 3 miles of East London\, a response to the creation of the M11 Link Road in the 1990s which involved the demolition of over 400 homes. \nLINKED has endured as perhaps the largest sonic installation and social sculpture in London for 20 years. Commissioned by the Museum of London and launched in 2003\, its radio transmitters have broadcast over a million times the voices of 60+ people who lived or worked in the area impacted by the road. \nAlong a route between Hackney Marshes and Redbridge Roundabout (adjacent to the Link Rd) analogue radio transmitters reveal the stories of families\, road protestors\, railway-workers\, teachers\, disco-goers\, and artists from the substantial community living in houses destroyed by the road including Cornelia Parker\, John Smith\, Christine Binnie and Ian Bourn. Together the assembly of voices evokes a fascinating and moving cross-section of ordinary East London life. \nTo experience this work\, you can borrow a small radio receiver\, headphones & map from our base at Wanstead Library any time between 11am and 5pm. \nPlease note that this is not a led sound walk\, but one that you can do at your own pace. \nThe full route is 3 miles long and can take several hours to complete on foot\, by wheelchair or by bike. However we can offer guidance on shorter routes according to your preferences\, and you are welcome to do one section\, stop in one of the many cafes en route\, and come and go as you wish. \nTo discuss any access requirements in advance\, please feel very welcome to get in touch with producer Nikki Tomlinson\, nikkijtom@gmail.com. \n \n  \n\n  \nCredits: \nLINKED was commissioned by Museum of London and launched in 2003\, produced by at Artsadmin. Generously supported by Arts Council England\, Heritage Lottery Fund\, London Boroughs Grants Committee part of the Association of London Government\, Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and the London Boroughs of Redbridge and Waltham Forest. The restoration of LINKED (2022 – 2024) was supported by Arts Council England. \nwww.graememiller.org

SUMMARY:Suffer Little Children: The lost family of Wanstead House
DESCRIPTION:The tragic story of Wanstead House\, and the dramatic relationship between Catherine and ‘Wicked’ William Long-Wellesley\, is a vibrant part of Wanstead’s history. But lesser known is what exactly happened to their three children after the palatial mansion was demolished to pay off William’s debts. Local historian Greg Roberts who has researched the subject for years reveals some of the secrets lurking in Wanstead’s back story.

SUMMARY:House of Scandal: A tribute to heiress Catherine
DESCRIPTION:A tribute to Wanstead’s House heiress Catherine on the 200th anniversary of her death. \nThe angel of Wanstead House\, Catherine Long-Wellesley\, who was wronged by her rogue of a wastrel husband who squandered her fortune\, died exactly 200 years ago. Her tale is one of celebrity\, glamour and exquisite injustice – but so much more than that. \nSuspend your disbelief as\, for one night only\, the Duke of Wellington invites the people of Wanstead to join him at St Mary’s Church to celebrate the life of their lost heiress. An extraordinary evening of storytelling and music will honour the legacy of a fearless trailblazer\, a local legend and a symbol of fierce feminine determination. \nThis celebration of life promises to be as unforgettable as the woman herself. Featuring text created by the author of The Angel and the Cad\, Geraldine Roberts\, and soul-stirring classical performances by the internationally-renowned Anastasia Nikki Forova\, and \, the event will culminate in a procession into the church grounds – where remembrance meets revelry. Raise a glass at an open-air wake and be part of a night where music\, memory\, and community come together under the stars. \nDon’t miss this powerful tribute to a woman who changed her world – and continues to inspire ours. \nAll welcome. One night only. Let her story light the way.
