MEMBERS of The Reading Branch of The Berkshire Family History Society (BFHS) will be able to hear about Victorians and Entertainment at their next meeting.
They will be joined by Dr Judith Hill, a freelance lecturer and researcher, who will be giving her insights into the hobbies and entertainments of a bygone era.
She will be talking about the music hall, the seaside, football and other pastimes, as attendees discover how the Victorians turned enjoyment for all into big business.

It will be given on Zoom from 7.15pm and is free to members.
