In 'The Town of Tomorrow', 50 years of Thamesmead's history have been assembled and preserved. The architecture of the town and its inhabitants are captured by archive material combined with newly commissioned photography by Tara Darby. Original plans, models, postcards, leaflets and newspaper cuttings are presented alongside interviews with local residents. Together with an introductory essay by John Grindrod, the images convey the story of this influential but often misunderstood town, from the dreams and excitement of its ambitious original vision to the complex realities of living there today. Peter Chadwick is the author of 'This Brutal World' (Phaidon). John Grindrod is the author of 'Concretopia: A Journey Around the Rebuilding of Postwar Britain' (Faber & Faber)
