Episode 3 - The Story of Goodman’s Fields

Today we venture through Goodman's Fields, a place where we can find many oddities of the urban fringe. We get to know about industries too dangerous or smelly to be welcomed in the city, activities too morally, politically or theologically dubious to be acceptable to the authorities and urban features most efficiently placed where they can be easily reached both from the city and its hinterland... and much more...

The Area:

Today, Goodman’s Field houses luxurious apartment complexes.
