Discussing the history of nineteenth century electoral reform in The Exchange
The riots get started as we reach the Council House, although our explanation of the history has to compete with dancing srudents!
Gloriously sunny as we reach #NottinghamCastle to learn aboaut the rainy day when it was burned down
As we reach Middle Pavement the story of the riots approaches its end as the yeomanry shoot into the crowd
Our story ends on dark note at the Shire Hall the site of the trial and hanging
Thanks to everybody who joined us. We had almost 40 people.
Our next walk will be on 9 August: https://peopleshistreh.wordpress.com/2025/05/05/guided-histreh-walk-9th-aug-agitating-the-lawless-rabble/
