About the Event
Join Graham Kew, who has lived in Minster Lovell since he was five, to enjoy his wealth of historical tales, and ghostly legends of the village.
He talk will include characters of Old Minster Lovell,
the ghostly legends that are attached to the picturesque medieval ruins of the village’s manor house, and the story of the Chartist cottages, which were built in 1847. Chartism was a working-class movement for political reform in Britain between 1838 and 1848, which took its name from the People's Charter of 1838.
He said: “Only a few of the original Chartist cottages, which range from two to four acres, remain now. It’s an incredible story.”
