Hi,

I am an Oral Historian involved with the Elephant 21 project.

I would like to talk to long term residents from the Elephant

Castle area,to record their stories of life around the Elephant

before it disappears.

Does anyone have any relatives or friends who may be willing to help?

It would involve me going to their homes for 1 to 2 hours.

Thanks

Caz

Hi Cas. Can you give more details my family lived in that area for generations but laterly moved further afield, the older ones hAve now passed on, I have an early A to Z road atlas that shows the roads before the mass demolition and new housing built over old roads, I have tried to find an earlier one that showed all the small back streets and courtyards but with out luck, as these long gone pLaces keep coming up as the homes of the family. I did not live there I was born in Camberwell, and lived in Dulwich.

    • I use Autocar Repair in West Dulwich.. been using them for over 20 years. Excellent service… 
    • A lot to agree with here - don’t get me started on Irish people complaining about immigration! - but that final paragraph is once again a cop out  there’s a lot of extreme right wing money stirring up the division that people are feeling - but there is zero excuse for handing power to these people. We live in a democracy and if we have enough people willing to give it up then judging those people foolish enough to do so is not only something that will happen, it is something that the rest of us should be morally compelled to do  if someone wouldn’t “normally” vote for a racist party yet somehow will do so because they hear someone like me saying that would be bad, then you better believe I’m judging them
    • We can't use our kitchen for a while and so looking for an air fryer to plug the gap. Please let me know if you have a good one in working order.  07702 305 310 Thanks
    • The current wave of xenophobia is due to powerful/influential people stirring up hatred.  It;'s what happened in the past, think 1930s Germany.  It seems to be even easier now as so many get their information from social media, whether it is right or wrong.  The media seeking so called balance will bring some nutter on, they don't then bring a nutter on to counteract that. They now seem to turn to Reform at the first opportunity. So your life is 'shite', let;s blame someone else.  Whilst sounding a bit like a Tory, taking some ownership/personal responsibility would be a start.  There are some situations where that may be more challenging, in deindustrialised 'left behind' wasteland we can't all get on our bikes and find work.  But I loathe how it is now popular to blame those of us from relatively modest backgrounds, like me, who did see education and knowledge as a way to self improve. Now we are seen by some as smug liberals......
