About this event

The chaotic but restricted nature of 18th-century politics; significant milestones in Shrewsbury’s electoral past; the fame or infamy of Admiral John Benbow, Lord Robert Clive, and Viscount Rowland Hill; the presence of John Wesley, the construction of St Chad’s. The development of organised sport; strange attitudes towards relationships.
