About

A virtual walk around the sights and sounds of the city on VE Day and immediately afterwards. This talk captures an extraordinary moment in Exeters history. Residents were still dealing with the aftermath of wartime destruction whilst at the same time planning for the future. Illustrated by astonishing archive photographs and there will even be a couple of songs!

Tea and Coffee included.
