Plymouth History Festival begins this Saturday 4th May and Ford Park Cemetery is involved in several events over the first weekend.
Local Studies Day is on Saturday at Plymouth University's Levinsky Building. One of our trustees, Ian Hodgins, will be giving a talk as part of that day. Ian is a very entertaining speaker and tickets for the whole day are still on sale at £5 from the Plymouth University web site.
On Sunday afternoon, starting at 2pm, our Heritage team will be leading a tour of the cemetery on the theme of Murder, Mystery and Mayhem. There is no charge for this event, but donations gratefully received.
Our exhibition on the theme of Accidental Deaths will be open from 12.30 to 3.30 on both Saturday and Sunday and for the next two weeks.
We have further events planned during the whole of the History Festival so check out the Festival brochure, our web site or our Facebook page for updates.
We hope you can come along and join us during May.
