The amazing Manchester Shakespeare scholar and suffragette Rosa Grindon is getting a mural in Fallowfield: ilovemanchester.com/rosa-grindon.... “It’s more than just a mural—it’s a statement that we are a community, we have history, and we have hope for the future.” How wonderful!
Legendary suffragette and scholar to be honoured with Fallowfield mural
In Fallowfield Brow, a new mural is set to transform the streetscape with a striking dash of colour - and an important history lesson.
