Dr Annie Gray is resident food historian on BBC Radio 4’s The Kitchen Cabinet as well as being a regular contributor to Saturday Kitchen. In this event, she will take us down the high street through the ages, from medieval marketplaces to the purpose-built concrete precincts of the twentieth century. Peeping through the windows of tailors, tearooms and grocers, we’ll explore everything from the toyshops of yesteryear – where curiosities were sold for adults, not children – to the birth of brands we shop at today.

Dr Annie Gray is a food historian specialising in the Georgian, Victorian and early twentieth centuries. She’s a popular speaker and broadcaster and a consultant to museums and heritage sites.
