St Quintin History – History & Memories of North Kensington

This is the work of Open Age members attending a Local History with IT class run by Sue Snyder of HISTORYtalk at the Positive Age Centre. Students at the class learnt and practised new IT skills as they researched and recorded the history of this corner of North Kensington, known historically as St Quintin Park.
