About this event

The Soldiers of Shropshire Museum's Annual Lecture, to be held at Allington Hall, Shrewsbury School

Was the Battle of Waterloo won on the playing fields of Eton?
Or was it won on those in Shropshire?

Allan Mallinson, novelist, former soldier and military historian, will reassess the role of General the Viscount Hill of Hawkstone and of Hardwicke in the County of Shropshire, and of Cornet Matthew Hervey, Old Salopian.
