Octavia Hill Birthplace House
7-8 South Brink, Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, PE13 1JQ
Using creative pursuits and open spaces she encouraged community activities. Her work on creating more parks in London and helping people access green spaces and open air visits led to the creation of the National Trust.
We showcase her work from the slums of London to model housing, through occupational therapy, the Army Cadets, recreational parks and social work.
The building itself is where she was born, where her family lived and worked, and has some beautiful architectural features and added artwork since the Trust took it on.
We're excited to be hosting the Fenland Family History Society! They can help you with your family history across the world; and they offer resources with particular reference to persons having lived in, or having been associated with, the historical area now known as Fenland. They'll be bringing some details about Octavia's own family.
