关于
Folklorist Alessandra Curtis talks about engraved love tokens from 1752 to 1868: sailors' farewell coins, prisoner coins and leaden hearts linked to convicts facing transportation. The tokens resurfaced for scholars thanks to Tim Millett, who made his private collection available to museums, and the talk ties them to Abney Park burials such as Chartist Henry Vincent and Archie Sloss. Part of the Gates of the Abode season, in the Harriet Delph Room next to the cafe. Book in advance through Abney Park Trust. This is an after-hours event: use the Stoke Newington High Street entrance and arrive 10 to 15 minutes early, as the gates lock when the event starts.
