An illustrated presentation by David S. Percy with Dame Janet Suzman reading filmed excerpts from the book.
David S. Percy presents the fascinating account of some of the first settlers on Haverstock Hill. A story of pioneers who arrived in Belsize in the early part of the 18th century and the houses they lived in. A captivating tale of a really gutsy, determined individual who made her own way, a woman who mixed with harlots, courtesans and lords of the land. This presentation coincides with celebrations to mark the Belsize Society/ BRA 50th anniversary.
The Harlots of Haverstock Hill is available to purchase at the Secure Shop
