Chalk Farm is a small urban district in north-west London, originally known as the Manor of Rugmere, mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086. The area underwent significant development in the 18th and 19th centuries, transitioning from farmland to a residential and entertainment hub, particularly after the arrival of the railway in the 1850s.
How are your detecting skills? Welcome to another of our many outside Picture Hunts this year. This time, the event will be centred around shop fronts, buildings and features on Chalk Farm Rd opposite the Camden market. There’s no crossing of busy roads.
If any issues with weather, we’ll switch to our 50-50 Trivia in the nearby Wetherspoon Ice Wharf, so turn up as something will be on regardless.
If you’re new to Picture Hunts, check previous events for winners and clue sheets.
Pkease aim to turn up for 1:00-1:30 when teams are being arranged.
As usual, portions of the road are split up into four areas where teams search for the locations of photographed items in the street, buildings or shop windows, and then record where they found them.
Picture Hunts are a great new way to get up to speed with slices of London history while sleuthing around the area.
Everyone is presented with twenty partial photos of objects around an area. Your team mission is to find them. Some well known, some well unknown!
This makes Picture Hunts more interesting and challenging, bringing out the best of your teams detecting skills.
You will also have a map of the area. It will be sub-divided into four sections, P, Q, R, S. Each photo will come from one of these.
Four players max per team, but the lower number teams get a point per player start from the biggest team.
For example, four teams of one, two, three and four. Four player team, no advantage, (the biggest and theoretically the more knowledge between them, except it doesn't always work like that). Three player team, one point start. Two player team, two point start. One player team, thre
