Roots of rave culture, Glastonbury and Kill the Bill protests can be found in 'lost' photos

'Lost' photographs documenting the early days of the rave scene and its links to political activism will feature in the new edition of a unique book.

The rediscovered pictures include images of the huge 1994 Criminal Justice Act demonstration in Bristol - a forerunner to 2021’s Kill The Bill protests. An historic mass eviction in Wanstead, East London, conducted to build the M11 motorway, is also documented in the pictorial treasure trove.

And there are also images from a free party in Brighton that was held in an old Sainsbury's store. The Sainsbury's rave followed a demonstration in London that became known as the Battle of Hyde Park, which is also featured in the recently rediscovered photos.
