Join us for our June public talk, when local historian, Carla Linford, will be exploring the Victorian Sex Trade. Described by the great and the good as a great social evil - the growth in prostitution in the Victorian era was closely bound up with the growth of urban society and often the only way that a woman who found herself widowed or abandoned could find a way to survive. Carla is an excellent speaker and her introduction to some our area's famous sex workers is sure to be entertaining as well as enlightening.
