Description: | Eton Manor Boys' Club was founded in 1909 by a group of Old Etonians for the boys living in the impoverished area of Hackney Wick. It was renowned for the quality and variety of the facilities it offered in the areas of sport, art, amateur dramatics, music, and other activities. Terry "Tosher" Bell (b 1943) joined the club in 1957. He later served on the committee of the club. Here, in conversation with Lynda Pearce of the "Up the Manor" project, he recalls the judgements made by the committee on what the "right type" of boy was. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Bishopsgate Institute | Rights holder: | Bishopsgate Institute | Subjects: | Leisure Sport | Temporal: | 2008 | Source: | Bishopsgate Institute | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
