About this event
Join us for another free Wednesday Talk at Bury St Edmunds Library! This time we'll be joined by Terry O’Donoghue who will be sharing some of the town's tragic, violent and comical history.
বুকিং প্রয়োজন। This talk is free to attend but spaces are limited. Bookings can be made in-person, over the phone by calling 01284 338830, or টিকিটসোর্সে অনলাইনে.
Civil unrest, rioting in the streets, even bloody violence – not the first association you would make with modern Bury St Edmunds. However, for centuries the town was at the centre of national and regional events. With this role came unrest, much of it with violent consequences.
Enjoy stories from the 1100s when the Abbey ruled every aspect of our lives, and onwards through the turbulent events of the next seven centuries during which the headline ‘Bury Stirs’ was coined. Even within the last 100 years, Bury has ‘stirred’ more than once.
You will be surprised at how volatile the town’s history has been and how that was expressed - tragic and violent tales mixed with the just plain comical. All of it played out on streets and buildings recognisable today.
