Please note that this event is booked as a 5-part series and individual event bookings are not available
In these workshops we will be using a collection of original manuscripts from the archives, along with online research, to uncover the stories of women from various social backgrounds who lived between 1500 and 1900. These include a Tudor Lady of the Manor, an elderly widow accused of witchcraft, and a Georgian Gentlewoman. By analysing historical documents, we aim to construct biographies of a segment of rural society that has been largely overlooked and marginalised.

PART 2 – SATURDAY 25 JANUARY
PART 3 – SATURDAY 1 FEBRUARY
PART 4 – SATURDAY 8 FEBRUARY
PART 5 – SATURDAY 15 FEBRUARY
Ages 12+,
