The Cornish Bird – Forgotten Women of the Cornish Coast

Discover the fascinating lives of some feisty ladies who once lived around the coast of Cornwall

Cornish writer, Elizabeth Dale, has been publishing her blog ‘The Cornish Bird‘ since 2016 and in that time she has delighted in discovering many lesser known stories from Cornwall’s past.

In this talk she introduces us to a wide range of feisty female characters, all with connections to our coast and all now faded into obscurity.

Their stories, ordinary and extraordinary, help to illustrate why she finds Cornish history so endlessly fascinating and exciting.
