Talk: A County goes to War with Paul Barnett

  • The Museum in the Park Stratford Park, Stratford Road Stroud, Gloucestershire, England, GL5 4AF United Kingdom (map)

After his sold-out talk on the Purton Hulks, we are delighted to welcome back historian Paul Barnett, this time with a talk exploring different aspects of life and work in Gloucestershire during WW2. Digging for Victory, bomb damage in Painswick, American tents at Sharpness and much more - this fascinating talk takes a look across the county. 2025 marks 80 years since the end of the Second World War, giving us an opportunity to explore the history of that period and the changes that the war years set in motion.
