The Drovers' Road Thursday 24 January

The next talk is by Welsh author Idris Evans. 

His talk is based on his book 'Hard Road To London'. This is a story of the cattle drovers who walked their animals over three hundred miles to the markets in London. A trade that had gone on for over one thousand years but it was through discovering coins with a metal detector that he discovered a world that had been forgotten.
This led to a feature on Country File with Adam Henson and a series on BBC 2 called 'British Foods'




Usual time and place - 7:30 pm at the Tiverton Village Hall. All are welcome.
