#localhistory #nottinghamhistory #historywalk #radicalhistory #Nottingham
We invite you to our popular guided walk on Saturday 9th August, 2pm. **Agitating the Lawless Rabble** **Sat 9th Aug 2025 2pm** **Starting at the Left Lion (Council House), ending on Heathcoat Street (back of Broadway Cinema).** **Free Event. No need to register, just turn up.** Duration about one hour, route wheelchair accessible (but there are some hills along the way). Featuring lots of original documents and Flying Faux Custard Pies! In this guided walk around Nottingham City Centre, we will be exploring some episodes related to Nottingham’s proud tradition of independent bookshops and radical publishing. Utilising primary sources, we will listen to the echoes of incredible people’s voices and remember some of their courageous struggles, from Susannah Wright defending her bookshop against riled up bigots in the 1820s to the community papers which fuelled grassroots resistance to the Poll Tax in the late 1980s and 1990s.
