Make history with PPR
Do you have any film, photos or written records which could form part of our archive on the history of
Portland Road? Even family snapshots taken in the area could be valuable to PPR. Maybe you are an estate agent with archives showing how Portland Road used to look?
With your help we can preserve the history of the area.
Let us know how you can “make history” by using the response slip.
