Mrs. Marshal, Pinner’s other domestic goddess

Pat Clark will reveal details of Mrs Marshal’s role in her talk on the 7th November in the Pinner Village Hall at 8.00 p.m.

If people think about a famous cook in Pinner they do not think about Mrs Agnes Marshall but about Mrs Isabella Beeton.

Mrs Marshall was arguably more publicly famous in her own time than Mrs Beeton was in hers, though the Marshall star has faded more quickly.

In Pinner she was probably more widely known than Mrs Beeton and she deserves to be better known these days in the place where she spent more than half her working life. Her public and private life will be told in this talk.
