The article by Percy Davenport, mentioned in today's blogpost is:
When the plague came to Loughborough. The Echo, Friday, September 20th, 1935.


I made reference in this week's blogpost on The Windmill Inn to the wonderful Bill Wells and his book: Billy's book of Loughborough boozers!

For this week's blogpost on Loughborough and Canterbury I consulted:

• Burton, David R. (1997) Loughborough: Britain in old photographs
• Wix, Donald H. C. et al. (1982) bygone Loughborough in photographs, Vol. 2

 

 

 

 

I haven't read any books for this week's post on World War one - We remember, but this publication is relevant.
