Proposed Peter Jefferson Smith fund – Donations Invited
Many may not know that Peter spent many years researching three generations of the Clapham-based I’Anson family of architects. Not only did they live here for some time but they were the architects of several important surviving local buildings, including the former Clapham Library (now Omnibus Theatre) and The Alexandra pub.
Project – Publish Peter’s Book
At the time of Peter’s death the resulting book was written, but sadly not yet published.
We think that the most appropriate tribute to such a notable local resident would be to get this book completed and published. This will entail professional historical advice in addition to publication and associated costs, so we need to raise funds.
We propose to set up a Peter Jefferson Smith fund in the Clapham Society and to invite donations.
