As part of our Warm Welcome to Manor House library As part of our Warm Welcome to Manor House library this winter, we are offering the chance to come and chat over a warm drink and a slice of cake. Everyone is welcome to join us, keep warm and discuss what we might like to do at future meetings – a spot of local history perhaps? Or something crafty? Or maybe just another natter! Friday afternoons 1.30pm-3.30pm Starting Friday 20th January 2023 January 20th, 27th, February 3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th, March 3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th & 31st Room 1, first floor, Manor House
It’s so sad to see the much loved Manor House Li It’s so sad to see the much loved Manor House Library Cannon in this state and it’s exactly what our stretch fund on @crowdfunderuk is for. This is obviously not an essential work but this pair of 18th Century French Naval Cannon are a favourite to the hundreds of children who visit the library every week. If you have children and have ever visited Manor House, I can almost guarantee you have a photo of them sat atop a cannon like Cher in the Turn Back Time video. Sadly, in recent years, as can be seen in the last two photos, we have had to place barriers around the cannon as they are no longer safe. More information on the history of the cannon is currently on display in the noticeboard in the car park. We would absolutely love to be in position to bring these cannon back to life and resume their photoshoots with the children of Lewisham. #cannon #restoration #manorhousecannon #crowdfund #crowfunding #crowdfunder #crowdfunderuk #fundraiser #supportlibraries #library #communitylibrary #lewisham #lee #leegreen #hithergreen #manorhouselibrary #manorhouse #manorhousegardens

Despite their differences, the writers and the books have much in common in exploring the refugee experience, political repression, and the erosion of language.

We smashed our £6000 @crowdfunderuk target yester We smashed our £6000 @crowdfunderuk target yesterday and now into our stretch target to raise another £3000. We are blown away by the generosity and support we’ve received from everyone and would like to thank each and every person who has donated and shared our cause. Our stretch target was set for a specific reason, to restore the much loved Manor House Library Cannon.
