My @vchlondon.bsky.social #PartnershipPublication on the history of Langley Burrell, Wilts has been called ‘excellent’ by the reviewer!!! Out July.

From the c17 ‘lust loving parson’ for whom only his mother was off limits to the c19 riot that ended in murder. From the Great Fire of London to the squire ‘who made the world’. From an c13 argument over a dog to the impact of American GIs. My #oneplacestudy on Langley Burrell is 😱 Out soon!
