What was the land in the Northfields used for before it became the Recreation Ground?
Philippa asks how, why and when did the Recreation Ground come into being? She investigates all the arrangements that had to be made, and charts its creation, development and facilities.
She takes us on a walk around its perimeter, and looks at the buildings and streets that grew up around it.
