Bygone Days Living History Talk - Not All Beer And Skittles

By Guest 3rd Apr 2022

ðŸ»NOT ALL BEER AND SKITTLESðŸ»

Bygone Days Living History Talk with local historian and Radstock Museum Trustee, Martin Horler, with slides to illustrate.

Martin says, "When I was researching for a talk I gave at the Museum on lost pubs around Radstock I was amazed at the activities that went on in the Village Pub, they were the centre of social and commercial life. The activities included things I have never heard of such as sparrow clubs, pinks shows, candle auctions etc, etc. Then there were activities not for the faint hearted such as cock fighting, bare knuckle fighting and rat tail clubs, courts with the power to hang people, such a diverse range of activities that I can fit into an hour's talk"

Tuesday 5th April 2022, 7:30pm, Somer Centre, £4. We look forward to welcoming you all to what will be a very entertaining evening.
