Bonus Episode: The Great Fire of Biggleswade, New Evidence.
A bonus episode about the 1785 Great Fire of Biggleswade. I've unearthed new evidence, which has lain unnoticed for 230 years. Does the established narrative including the cause of the fire need to be challenged? Make up your own mind after listening. Find out about how the news was reported 230 years ago, how connected our country really was back then, and how history can turn on a six pence or on a dog's paw. Researched, written and presented by Nat Doig Theme music by Tess Savigear Find the transcript and show notes at weirdinthewade.blog We're on twitter and instagram as @weirdinthewade
