Gwydir Street Stories – About

Recording residents' memories of Gwydir Street

Explore the story of Gwydir Street and the local area with the people who live here!

The oral history recordings in this collection have been produced by Gwydir Street Friends in collaboration with the local community and Professor Helen Weinstein of HistoryWorks and  have been made possible with the support of National Heritage Lottery Fund and Cambridge City Council Community Grants as part of This Is Our Street! – an intergenerational, cultural heritage project.

In each recording the guest is interviewed by a neighbour with the ambition to encourage friendship and exchange and bridge connections between different generations living on the street.

Meet the neighbours:

New parents Agata & Becky in conversation Sophia

Sam & Pat in conversation with Beelin
