19th CENTURY TRESPASSERS IN MILFORD
SPEAKER : JANE WHITAKER
A notebook kept by the Milford Nightwatchmen in the 1830s was handed over to Belper Historical Society in 2022. After transcribing the book, it was possible to identify the people involved, the places that attracted trespassers and the punishments meted out to offenders. The talk shows a fascinating and very detailed picture of a different side of local life.
