BILL BROCKLESBY OUTLINES HULL HISTORY TO BRIGG AMATEUR SOCIAL HISTORIANS



Bill Brocklesby gave a very interesting talk on the History of Kingston upon Hull at the February meeting of Brigg Amateur Social Historians (BASH).
He spoke of how the city developed from the 12th Century to the 20th Century.
The next talk will be at the Brigg Servicemen’s Club (Tuesday March 5) and will be entitled “Asleep in the Deep” - an illustrated talk by local author Diane Brian.
The talk is about the rise and fall off the Bennett Steamship Company. All are welcome.
Our thanks, as ever, go to Pat Parkinson for the report and to Phil Allen for the picture.
