Liverpool History Night
Friday 9 May - Dave and Barbara's (No 6)
8.30 pm Start
This is a DIY approach to the history of Liverpool from the 10th century onwards. The idea is that families take a century each and provide a 5-10 minute summary of the key events in that century in Liverpool. A summary of the major historical events and things like the size of the population, the main elements of the city's economy, fashion, social habits, transport, housing etc. Essentially anything that takes your fancy that might be interesting. Bonus points for anything specific about Brockholme Road.
Centuries and families are:
10th Mike and Kath
11th Dave and Val
12th Dave and Mary
13th Nuala and Paul
14th Jim and Julie
15th Dave and Barbara
16th Yvonne and Ramsey
17th Sue
18th Kevin nand Irene
19th Joy and Colin
