Postcards of Hackney – A Hackney Society event Thursday 6th June 8pm

This Thursday 6th June at 8pm The Hackney Society will host a special event offering an opportunity to explore the streets and sights of old Hackney from a unique album of postcards that has been lovingly collated over decades. Founder Hackney Society member Melvyn Brooks will show images from his extensive collection of postcards featuring streets and buildings across Hackney. Whilst many have changed beyond all recognition other will appear recognisable and familiar.
