I had an entertaining and educative visit to Elizabeth Gaskell House in Manchester today. The home of the 19th century author Elizabeth Gaskell and her husband William Gaskell a Unitarian minister.
The house has been painstakingly restored and is run by enthusiastic and knowledgeable volunteers.

Ventured across the Irwell to visit Salford. Our walk included a visit to Bexley Square. Here in 1931 citizens of Salford who were protesting against cuts in unemployment benefit were attacked by mounted police wielding batons. This event features in the novel 'Love on the Dole' and the film of the same name.
