Bill Wymans Chelsea: From Medieval Village to Cultural Capital Wyman Bill
Bill Wyman has worked in the London borough of Chelsea onand-off since joining the Rolling Stones in 1962, and has lived in the area since 1982. Bill then began to research the area thoroughly - its history, its stories, and its residents.Bill Wyman's Chelsea is the result of this work: a comprehensive and informative guide to a London borough steeped in culture and history, as seen through the personal and aff ectionate lens of a long-standing resident, who himself plays a part in the history of the area. Over the past few years, Bill has walked every street of his beloved neighbourhood, photographing anything unusual that caught his eye: bridges, churches, pubs, shops, houses, monuments, decorative wall plaques, blue historical plaques, statues, weather vanes, front doors, street signs and coal hole covers.
Complete with walking tour itineraries, maps, an A-Z of streets,
