Our tour took us to more sites associated with celebrated women before ending where it began outside the fabulous Christ Church. After she died her husband said of her, " she held that she was doing more good to the cause (female equality) by showing that she, a woman, could do a man’s job as well as any male creature and better than most." This didn't stop Lilian who after showing such enormous ability in Economic history was offered a job by the London School of Economics. At that time women like Lilian were allowed to study alongside men at Oxford and Cambridge but were denied the right to be awarded a degree. Our next stop was outside a student accommodation that had been named after one of the London School of Economics alumni. A pioneering female academic, the first female professor of Economic History at LSE, and first female Dean of Faculty in the University of London. At Cambridge she achieved a double first in History and Law coming ‘equal to 2’ in the Law Tripos Part 1 in 1894. Many ended up in Spitalfields, often destitute, the nuns provided a night's accommodation for a day's work. behind the bric and brac there will be no lookin back and between hell and hello there will be no lettin go no there wont and you cant. I think I found this big tree up on the cliffs between the 2 church lots. A list of lyrics, artists and songs that contain the term 'bric-a-brac' - from the website. In the 1800s after the Irish famine a mass emigration of Irish left Ireland to escape starvation and disease. I am supposed to look for a trinket near the sacred oak in the Bric a Brac Day quest but I cant find the tree, let alone search by it. We passed outside the former home of the "deserving poor". Modern day rebel of the art world, her artwork has over time shaken up established views about what art is and has encouraged people to reflect on the act of looking. In general, a knick-knack is an individual object, such as a small statuette on a mantel, while bric-a-brac is a collection of decorative pieces attached to or surrounding a larger piece (such as bric-a-brac set into the edge of the mantel). The service still exists and offers a library service. They gave Ox-bridge graduates the opportunity to come into the East End after they finished their degrees to live and help locals. Our next lady gained a place on our list because she and her husband set up Toynebee Hall to support the East End's poor. Over time St Mary's Hospital and the surrounding area was shortened to 'Spital-fields and so its name was born. As part of their requirements the monks vowed to look after the destitute and for many poor who had travelled down to London, the monastery would be where they would stop for hospitality. It was here Rose Brune and her husband bought some land to build a monastery in 1197. The first lady we were introduced to on our tour took us far back into the medieval city of London when the Spitalfields area was home to a monastery dedicated to St Mary outside the city's walls.
