After the idea was thrown around as a bit of a joke, I helped lead a team to survey surviving London street signs bearing the initials of the defunct N.E. postal district. Following a public scavenger hunt, the results of the survey were published online and in a limited-edition zine. A more detailed scholarly article then appeared in the Hackney History journal.
Key Responsibilities
- Collaborating with the core team to lead a wider group of volunteers in the execution of the scavenger hunt.
- Consolidating the survey results, making them ready for presentation.
- Producing the zine, and writing the submission for Hackney History.
