In 2002 I filmed every house on College Road, the street central to the many stories that my father told of his childhood in Dulwich, London. The inventory of College Road was an attempt to subtantiate these stories, to validate and authenticate a history. The dual screen projection shows that inventory footage alongside images of the remarkable Thames Tunnel at Greenwhich engineered by Brunel.
