About this event
Guy Fawkes, the Gunpowder Plot and the Yorkshire Connections - presented by Tony Morgan.
On 5th November each year we celebrate the failure of the Gunpowder Plot with bonfires and fireworks, but what really happened?
This well-researched and entertaining talk covers Guy Fawkes's background in Tudor York, the history of the Gunpowder Plot and the myriad of Yorkshire connections, including local links to Scotton and Ripley Castle.
