“These are the sources that helped reveal the stories of long-dead occupants of those rooms. However, it’s the stories of the inhabitants, stories of real people, their trials and tribulations, which bring the building to life. All will be revealed across the three talks.Part 1 takes place on Tuesday 6 June from 7pm to 8.30pm at Central Methodist Church in Lune Street.
