AnnotationOlga Adams moved to the Woodberry Down estate in the early 1950s, when it was one of the London County Council's showpiece developments in Hackney. Mrs Adams talks about the changes she has seen, and how she and a group of older tenants on the estate set out to find out more about the history of their homes. A book of memoirs was published by the group. (KJ).
