Frustrated by a consultation process that appears to have had little meaning and has produced no significant change,the Spitalfields Trust is now OPPOSING British Land, in a fight to save the buildings and life of this historic neighbourhood and Conservation Area.

The Trust is staging an exhibition which articulates its criticism of British Land’s scheme, tells the story of the history of Norton Folgate and presents an alternative vision for the neighbourhood – a vision which respects rather than destroys history and architectural precedent.

A launch event is hosted by Dan Cruickshank and Jonathan Pryce at Elder Street on Thursday 12th Feb at 6.00pm. An exhibition illustrating the threat to the neighbourhood and an alternative approach to the reuse of the site: repairing its historic fabric rather than destroying it as proposed by British Land. This exhibition will be on show at Dennis Severs House on the following dates:

Saturday 14th February 10 - 1pm
Sunday 15th February 10 - 12pm
Tuesday 17th February 4 - 7pm
Thursday 19th February 4 - 7pm
Saturday 21st February 2 - 5pm
Sunday 22nd February 10 - 12pm
Tuesday 24th February 12 - 2pm
Thursday 26th February 12 - 2pm
