[post_content] => Why are the words ‘Facts not Opinions’ carved over the door at 99 Southwark Street?
This is Kirkaldy’s Testing and Experimenting Works, and it was the world’s first independent commercial materials testing house, right here in Bankside’s original innovation district. From the day it opened on 1 January 1874 huge samples of bridges and other engineering structures arrived here from around the world to be tested to destruction on David Kirkaldy’s patented 116-ton ‘Universal Testing Machine’. Kirkaldy’s ‘facts’ were transforming the ‘opinions’ that underpinned Victorian cities.
Today, thanks to a small group of passionate volunteers, you can still experience David Kirkaldy’s single-minded ingenuity. Take the tour and you will see – and smell – the authentic workshop with its working machines, bringing the story of materials testing and the Kirkaldy family to life. It’s a direct link with a pioneering age of engineering and thanks to an education programme being developed with local schools, now it is inspiring future generations. Go and visit - you might even get to break something yourself!

[post_content] => As part of our celebration of London Festival of Architecture we’ve teamed up with JA Projects to bring you Roots, Shoots and Fruits an event exploring Bankside’s Urban Forest and Lowline.
The Bankside Urban Forest is a long-term project to create a new type of greening initiative in central London. The Lowline is an ambitious project that aims to transform the railway viaducts in Southwark into a vibrant, green space for the local community. Both projects are part of a wider effort to create a more sustainable, resilient, and inclusive city.
At this event, you will have the opportunity to hear from various designers and experts on the projects' evolution, including the challenges they have faced, the progress made so far, and the vision for the future. You will also be able to ask questions and participate in discussions with other attendees.
The event will be an excellent opportunity to learn more about Bankside’s Urban Forest and Lowline and to meet like-minded people who are passionate about creating a better environment for all. We hope you can join us for what promises to be a fascinating and inspiring evening.
We look forward to seeing you there!
