Jim Etherington traces the development of the 5 November Lewes Bonfire Night celebrations from its early beginnings through to the present day. Particular emphasis is given to the 19th century during which the bonfire boystransformed their event from an evening of riot to one of organised spectacle.

All are welcome and entrance is free.

 

This event is organised by The Keep as part of their ‘InFocus’ series of talks.
