Join our guest speaker Peter Lush of London League Publications Ltd for a special talk celebrating Harringay's Speedway heritage. A much loved pastime, many local people still recall going to Harringay Stadium (long since closed) to watch the great speedway riders. As well as being home to one of London's greatest speedway venues, some of the best racers also competed for the local team: Jack Parker, Vic Duggan and Split Waterman. Come along to the Museum to revisit some of your favourite memories, or to learn something new about the area's history.

Tea and Tottenham Cake will be served afterwards! A chance to purchase books about Harringay Speedway, published by London League Publications.

This free talk will be commemorating a dear late Friend of Bruce Castle and volunteer , Bill Rust, who so generously and kindly bought and got restored our 1937 speedway bike, proudly now on display at Bruce Castle Museum.
