The Cheap Cottages Exhibitions

 

1905 & 1907

Today's 'Tomorrow's Garden City' competition was inspired by the 1905 and 1907 Cheap Cottages Exhibitions, two pivotal events in the history of Letchworth Garden City.

This section of the website provides you with more information about the two exhibitions and how they have shaped the way Letchworth Garden City looks today.
