Whose Heritage is it anyway? Memorialising British Protest Movements, 1792-1840

This event has ended.

Professor Steve Poole is Professor of History and Heritage at the University of the West of England, where his work focuses on eighteenth and nineteenth century history from below, with a particular emphasis on crime, popular protest and the crowd in south-western counties. His paper explores the way in which protest movements in the late eighteenth and first half of the nineteenth-century have been remembered, and the politics surrounding their commemoration.
