Description
Photo of two St Ebbe's history boards installed on 20th November 2020 at the junction of Preacher's Lane and Blackfriars Road, near the pedestrian crossing at Thames Street.
The boards highlight the rich history of St Ebbe’s, particularly the southern part of the parish, which is known as the Friars. They explain how a crowded and lively suburb developed over the 19th and 20th centuries; what industries, shops and businesses flourished there; and how the area came to look as it does today.
