Dr Alan Rosevear will explore inland travel in Southwest England in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
About this Event

This will be an exploration of inland travel in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, based on travel diaries and contemporary illustrations. Through the personal diaries of men and women who journeyed across Southwest England, the talk will address what modes of transport they chose, why they travelled and their experiences along the way. Their tales will be illustrated with pictures made at the time and maps that plotted their itineraries.

Our speaker, Dr Alan Rosevear, is a retired research scientist with a life-long fascination with the history of roads and transportation.
