Back in October 2009, as part of our preparations for the construction of our new head office, The Co-operative invited Oxford Archaeology to excavate the site. The team spent several weeks digging, and gathered a lot of valuable information about the area and the people who lived in it during the last 150 years.
My grandfather lived in Charter Street which is off Angel Meadow and yes, it was a well known slum area!
