This subject of the WEA’s next 10-week course is led by tutor, Ted Woodgate who intends to use Essex newspapers of the time to help investigate such areas as:
- the drama of the West Bergholt fires,
- the Swing riots,
- the formation of a national farm workers’ union, and
- the birth of political rights for rural workers.
The venue is the Methodist Hall in Chapel Lane CO6 3EF and the course starts on Tuesday 15th January 2013 at
8.00 pm.
Everyone one is welcome and if you’re not sure whether this is for you, why not come along without obligation on the first night before deciding if to enrol? Cost for the 10 weeks is still £45. Further information from our Secretary on 01206 240791 or e-mail [antibot mailto=” [email protected]”]
