Next meeting November 21 John Corbett of Ynysymaengwyn

[QuentinDeakin]

At our November meeting we are delighted to welcome back Dr John Hirst with another presentation on the Victorian era in Tywyn, years which saw a small village transformed into the town and resort still recognisable today. Dr Hirst will be following up October's talk on Edward Corbet - top dog in the area at the opening of the nineteenth century - pointing to the similarities and even more striking contrasts in their background and careers. The title for his talk is "A most enterprising landowner" - John Corbett of Ynys y Maen Gwyn and social change at the end of the nineteenth century'. As usual, the meeting will be held in the back room of the Baptist Church, starting at 7PM. All welcome.
