ABOUT JERICHO - VIDEOS
The walls of Jericho
Artists at work in Jericho in 2002.
The film was made by Martin Lipson and Joe Gualtieri in 2003 for Artweeks, both having then recently completed a video-making course at Oxford Film and Video Makers (now called Film Oxford).
It showcases a number of artists working in various mediums in and around Jericho at the time.
Who owns the houses?
In Jericho in 2011, only 21% of households were owner occupiers. Instead, many more people rented their homes: 58% from private landlords and 20% from ‘social’ landlords, mostly the City Council.
About the church bells?
Originally the Church only had the single ‘Barney’s Bell’. In 1890, when the clock was installed, it was decided to add a set of tubular bells to ring the chimes and the hour strike, as well as a tune or ‘carillon’. The are driven by an elaborate mechanical contraption.
