A short hop on public transport or by car
Always check live travel information and parking restrictions on the day of your visit.

The most ordinary-looking cassette from Hackney can turn out to contain an extraordinary piece of family history. Modern files let the footage travel far beyond the drawer or box where it was rediscovered.
