The Building Exploratory, commissioned by the Living Wandle Landscape Partnership Scheme<\/a> to deliver the ‘Wandle Treasures’ project, is seeking to raise \u00a34,200 to tour its new map to venues along the River Wandle \u2013 regarded during the Victorian period as one of the world\u2019s hardest working rivers.<\/h3>\n

The Building Exploratory writes:<\/p>\n

The Building Exploratory, one of London’s key heritage organisations, was commissioned by the Living Wandle Landscape Partnership Scheme<\/a> to deliver the ‘Wandle Treasures’ project as part of the wider Industrial Heritage Recording Project, supported by the National Lottery through the Heritage Lottery Fund.<\/p>\n

‘Wandle Treasures’ saw a group of local volunteers researching and documenting more than 50 heritage treasures and it\u2019s our job to make this work accessible to a wider audience. In addition to Stephanie Theobald\u2019s beautiful Treasures Map all the treasures have been digitally recorded and can be accessed online through the Wandle Library<\/a> digital archive resource.<\/p>\n

We need to raise \u00a34,200 to tour the map to venues along the River Wandle \u2013 regarded during the Victorian period as one of the world\u2019s hardest working rivers: The Wandle supported over 90 water mills powering the enduring textile enterprises of William Morris, and London\u2019s famous department store, Liberty & Co. Their close affiliation with the Wandle can be seen in Morris\u2019 printed design \u2018Wandle\u2019, of 1884 inspired by the river.<\/p>\n

Discover more about the remarkable heritage of the Wandle and help us share these treasures with local communities by supporting our funding campaign. Make a donation and choose your own treasure as a reward including limited edition prints and postcards.<\/p>\n
