Through the magic of Powerpoint, John Davey will use his family collection of old photographs and postcards to take us back to early 20th century Lewes. We will go for a virtual stroll from Western Road to South Street, looking at about 20 of the old inns like The White Horse and The Unicorn that we shall pass on our way.

John Davey taught at Lewes County Grammar School and subsequently at Priory School. He is a Trustee of the Lewes Priory School Memorial Chapel, and President of the Friends of Lewes.
