As part of the London Open House Festival, the People's Museum Somers Town and St Mary's held an event in St Mary's Church. Actors performed excerpts from the musical Jellicoe!, based on the life of Fr Basil Jellicoe and his work to build decent homes for the people of Somers Town. Films and photographs from the last 100 years also told the story. Later in the afternoon there was a workshop on the importance of our twentieth-century social housing and whether it should be protected through the creation of a conservation area.
