All talks, anywhere via Zoom. I’m based in Derbyshire but happy to travel across the East Midlands. I am a historian, author, heritage worker and history blogger. I have a First in History from the University of Derby and an MA in Public History and Heritage. My first history book, a biography on Anthony Woodville, brother-in-law of Edward IV, entitled Anthony Woodville: Sophisticate or Schemer was published in February 2024.

My talks talks are delivered in a fun and engaging style, so are aimed at a non-academic audiences. All presentations are fully illustrated. They normally last from 50 to 60 minutes, but can be adjusted to suit your needs.

Reduced fees available for charities.

My talks have developed from my historical research and cover a wide range of topics; Anthony Woodville: Sophisticate or Schemer; Eleanor Coade and Her Artificial Stone; Margaret Cavendish, Duchess of Newcastle: Is it fair to call her ‘Mad Madge’? A full list is available below.
