 'The early development of the Shropshire towns of Newport and Wem'


                                                                                                                     With Dr. Judith Everard
Dr Everard's talk to OBHAG will look at the early development of Wem and Newport, and at the contrast between the two - Wem close to the Welsh border, defended by its castle, Newport near to the county border with Staffordshire, focussed on its market.
