History of Cricklewood

We attended two talks about the history of Cricklewood recently. We recorded both for posterity as figured it might be interest for future reference for others interested in the borough.

The first was by a long-time resident, Nora Marshall, talking about her experiences of living her during wartime. It was absolutely fascinating.



The second was by Malcolm Barres-Baker, who gave a slideshow and talk about the history of Cricklewood based on information from the local Brent museum archives. (This one starts off a little fuzzy, it wasn't till about 4 min in that we realised we had to zoom in in order for the slides to be in focus).
