GAY CYCLG GROUPS IN THE UK
The first, an entirely flat route, foced on s Central London and the send, wh a sharp hill climb to the former home of Dty Sprgfield, went wt to Kensgton, Chelsea and Earl's Court, the centr of London gay life for much of the past century. Notg that gay history has generally been a worldwi tale of persecutn, discrimatn and jtice, we began by markg the impact of Henry VIII’s Buggery Act of 1533, the first secular legislatn England on sexual moraly. The first ri moved on to the Cy of Quebec, the olst ntually gay public hoe the UK, and om there, explored a number of former venu where gay men - and ls often women - met and socialised over the centuri.
One unexpected disvery was that London 1720 had more gay venu than the 1950s, when the then Conservative home secretary, Sir David Maxwell Fyfe, sought to wipe out what he lled a “plague over England” g a batn of police entrapment and rmers.
The Cy of Quebec is the olst ntually gay public hoe the UK. The mpaign for homosexual rights and reform. A send theme of this ri was the mpaign for homosexual rights and toleratn by 19th century ratnalists, Bloomsbury tellectuals and trial survivors, like the journalist Peter Wilblood, thor of the 1955 memoir 'Agast the Law'.
