Edith Neville

A local reformer honoured with the naming of a primary school after her. Known for her work with the St Pancras Housing Association, she also founded the St Pancras People's Theatre. Elsewhere, we learn that one of the Edith Neville Cottages on Crace Street was donated by the Brewers' Company as a tribute to her concern for pubs and belief in their importance to the community.
