Slade Place Deptford
Amongst the fascinating discoveries made by Guillery is the story of Mary Lacy, an ambitious and indomitable woman born in 1740, who disguised herself as a man to become a shipwright and later a builder. In 1775-85 she built a row of houses in Deptford, “Slade’s Place”, part of which development still survives as nos 104 – 108 and 116 – 118 Deptford High Street. She moved in to the biggest house with Elizabeth Slade, probably her lover. It is stories such as these which have gone largely untold until now but which add immeasurably to the richness of the capital’s architectural and social history.
