Gloucestershire Archives: Secrets Revealed online talk

'Here We Are Now, Entertain us' 

Wednesday 26 July, 1-2pm.  Free of charge.  Online talk.  

This month’s online talk is all about entertainment in the county, so we will look at all aspects of rest, recreation, and relaxation from archery to xylophones and most things in between.  As well as what we might call the all the ‘usual entertainments’ such as cinema, dancing, fairs, fetes, concerts, music hall, theatre and sports, we’ll have a look at the other crazy entertainments that Gloucestershire is famous for such as cheese rolling, river football, woolsack racing and Captain Dover’s Olimpick Games!
