Yorkshire Coast History
by Dr David Pendleton
Social history brought to you from the beautiful Yorkshire coast in the north of England. My specialisation is Victorian and modern history, in particular sport and leisure, but expect this podcast to range far and wide. From the football terrace, to a fishing boat on the heaving waters of the North Sea; archeological geophysics, to the buckets and spades of seaside holidays. This will be an eclectic podcast!
