Local history
Whether you are tracing the history of a building, undertaking a GCSE project, discovering the history of your family or just interested in the local history of the area where you live, the Camden Local Studies and Archives Centre is the place to start.
The Centre contains over 200,000 items on the history of the borough and we aim to keep anything that helps reflect life in Camden past and present.
Local family share their photographs
The Ing family, who had a fishmonger and poultry business at 99 Albany Street and at 52a Bolsover Street for many years, have kindly given us copies of their family photographs.
Copies of these and many other images in our collection can be purchased from us.
