Life in the Triangle

Beyond the work of repair, a rich community life developed in the Triangle — Bishops Way, Sewardstone Road and Waterloo Gardens. Families settled, children played in the long gardens stretching down to the Grand Union canal, a community café opened, and residents organised politically. This set captures the textures of daily life from the late 1970s through the 1980s.
