Speaker: Emily Greig

Oxford’s population grew rapidly in the second half of the 19th century as streets of densely packed terrace houses were built on the fields of east Oxford. Emily describes how the Oxford City Mission in Cowley sought to improve the lives of the area’s poor. Emily is a local historian who lives in Oxford.
