History and Today: BBC programme on Peterloo
http://historytoday-navickas.blogspot.com/2015/06/bbc-programme-on-peterloo.html
Dr Katrina Navickas, history, geography and social movements. Monday, 15 June 2015. BBC programme on Peterloo. Here's a permanent link to the BBC Learning programme I was on about the Peterloo Massacre: http:/ www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02jg2hp. It features Dr Robert Poole, and a great Lancashire lad called Mathew. The BBC warns it 'contains scenes of moderate violence'. I think the people who faced the yeomanry's sabres would say that was more than just 'moderate'. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

July 28, 2016. July 28, 2016. It turns out that this patch of ground in the middle, where the wet patch is between the trees and the houses was completely clear before the 1960s.
