Talks on Tyne: The History of Newcastle - John Grundy
Newcastle Castle, in association with Tyne Bridge Publishing (Newcastle Libraries publishing arm), present Talks on Tyne, a series of six talks taking place 27 July 31 August in the Black Gate.
John Grundy, one of the North Easts favourite TV historians, turns his attention to the history of Newcastle upon Tyne.
In his inimitable style he tackles questions such as
Where did the Roman bridge at Newcastle actually lead to?
What did St Wilfred choose as a holiday souvenir from his trip to Rome?
Why did medieval Newcastle need town walls?
How was Newcastle reviewed on the 17th century version of TripAdvisor?
Always knowledgeable, often funny and sometimes irreverent, this talk is perfect for anyone who is passionate about our great regional capital.
