A very entertaining talk by Sally Mitchell which traced the history of Tuxford back to Roman times as well as focussing on the town’s importance as a staging post on the Great North Road. This presentation was followed up by a visit to Tuxford in May.
A group of CDLHS members visited the Holocaust Memorial Centre in 7th July this year and enjoyed a memorable and worthwhile afternoon.
Memorial Garden, Holocaust Centre
Our visit started with a talk from Simon Winston who shared with us his escape, with his family, from the Holocaust all those years ago. It was very moving to hear this account and to talk to Simon afterwards.
