About The Speaker...

I have been presenting talks since around 2005, gradually expanding my list of subjects to be able to present upwards of 15 talks. I don’t specialise in one particular area of history but tend to find a subject for a talk that would interest me were I a member of an audience, hence the broad range of subject listed here.

About Their Talks...

All are powerpoint presentations unless otherwise stated and tend to last an hour though if required all can be tailored to suit a groups particular requirements. I carry all the equipment I require for my talks.

Fee:

My fees generally start at £45 working within my local area. For visits further afield there will be an increase to cover fuel.

THE HISTORY BENEATH OUR FEET.

The story behind the accidental discovery of a Derbyshire town’s first and so far only major archaeological site.

THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN - The end of a 19th century horror story.

How we came to have the garden cemeteries we have today and how the scandalous treatment of the dear departed in the early 19th century led to their creation.

THE LIFE AND TRAVELS OF ROBERT BRUCE NAPOLEON WALKER.

Were those tales told to us about by our parents and grand parents about our ancestors really true. When we researched one of these tales we uncovered more than we could ever imagined.

JOHN GLOVER'S SKETCH BOOK.

A tiny volume of sketches, dating from around the late 1790s, had sat in the Derbyshire archives for years before it was realised it had been wrongly catalogued. It turned out to have belonged to an artist who in his time was regarded as important as Constable and Turner. Largely forgotten today (in this country at least) in one country in particular, John Glover is almost regarded as a national treasure.

THE NIGHT THE ZEPPELINS CAME

The night of January 31st 1916 saw one of the largest Zeppelin fleets ever to raid Britain. Nine Zeppelins took off. All but one returned home. Despite having lost their way towards their primary targets, the fleet wandered for several hours across the Midlands dealing out death and destruction at every opportunity
