About this Event
Join us on Saturday 18th January to hear Adrian Gray examine the marriages of the Sherwood Forest Nobility.
Rufford, Welbeck, Clumber, Thoresby...the ‘great houses’ of Sherwood, but the lords and ladies who lived there were often no better than the surrounding peasantry and often a good deal worse! Adrian Gray’s new book ‘The Scandalous Lives of the Sherwood Forest Nobility’ tells the story of their illicit love affairs and disastrous gambling habits, and in this talk he focuses on some of the disastrous marriages they contracted.
Did you know that modern divorce laws originated with a Sherwood Forest case? Find out how, and who was to blame, in this fascinating talk!
