- David S2 contributionsI had read a few books on the Thompson - Bywaters case of 1922 and set out to explore on foot some of the area (which I did) - checked out the museum which was very interesting and explored the adjacent library section on the history of Ilford. Found some relevant books in a locked glass case and the helpful researcher got them out for me to peruse. Excellent service , and much appreciated. .Written 17 September 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
