Local author and historian Adrian Gray will give an illustrated and entertaining introduction to his new book, ‘The Scandalous Lives of the Sherwood Forest Nobility’.All your favourite places are here – Clumber, Rufford, Thoresby, Welbeck, Newstead and perhaps the less well known Bestwood and Worksop Manor. Adrian will cover a range of scandals including lustful affairs, disastrous marriages, vast sums lost in gambling and even some political corruption. You may think that life now is bad… but it was not that much better in years gone by, even amongst our so-called ‘social superiors’.
Books will on sale at a special launch price. Light refreshments will be available.
