The Smoking Gun of the Shakespeare Authorship Question - Bacon's copy of Shakespeare's Holinshed
In 1938 a momentous discovery was made: ‘Shakespeare’s Own Copy of Holinshed’s Chronicles’
Really?
Why 85 years later is nothing known about it? Where is Shakespeare’s Holinshed today?
A work belonging to our poet Shakespeare with very distinctive, unusual markings that also appear on Bacon’s Northumberland manuscript & works owned by Bacon is seemingly missing.
Where is it & Why is it missing?

Lecture by Ron Ridley: The fate of the column of Antoninus Pius
On Wednesday 23 November, Ron Ridley (Melbourne) joined us at the British School at Rome to give a fantastic lecture entitled 'The fate of the column of Antoninus Pius'.
'The column of Antoninus was never completely buried, but was rather hidden (in the garden of the Fathers of the Mission, beside Montecitorio) until Clement XI in 1703 employed the Fontanas to clear, raise, lower, and move it. Contemporaneous triumphalist accounts of the operation are belied by the facts and the current remains: only the pedestal in the Vatican Museum. Things went very wrong, to be followed by centuries of neglect'. (Ron Ridley)

LEDSTON: Leeds Parish #8 of 38
Like Ledsham, the first part of the name here seems to refer to Leeds or the Old English precursor, Loidis, which denoted a region rather than a town. This village’s name literally means the settlement or estate belonging to Leeds and it lies to the East of the A656 road. There was a railway station named after the village on the Castleford to Garforth line, though this station was actually adjacent to Allerton Bywater Colliery. Next week we’ll see where that station was
The village has had some interesting occurrences through history, none more so perhaps than the tale of Mary Pannal - a herbalist and cunning woman who was accused of, and executed for, witchcraft in 1603. That followed the death of a young child named William Witham in 1593 to whom she had administered a herbal mixture.

Secret Chambers and Hiding Places,
Allan FEA (1860 - 1956)
“Secret Chambers and Hiding Places” is a collection of concealments and their uses, almost all within England, although a very few passages and chambers in continental Europe are mentioned, Jacobite hidey holes in Scotland, while the final chapter of the book covers Bonnie Prince Charlie’s wanderings around Scotland, among caves and other hiding places. Most chapters are devoted to historical events; such as the the seventeenth century persecution of roman catholics (with many large houses having specially constructed “priests’ holes”), or various unpopular monarchs and their hiding places. The text is scattered with legends and true stories, with...

The youth of our middling rich: how egalitarian were UCL’s founders? - UCL Lunch Hour Lecture
Speaker: Mr Colin Penman, UCL Special Collections, Thursday 9th February 2017 #ucllhl
Bring your lunch and your curiosity! UCL Lunch Hour Lectures, Tuesdays and Thursdays, Darwin Lecture Theatre, 1.15 - 1.55pm (term time)
When the plan for a university for London was outlined by the poet Thomas Campbell in a letter to The Times on 9 February 1825, a storm of controversy was unleashed by the ‘establishment’: the church, the ancient universities, and the Tory press. In many ways, this is unsurprising, as the new institution would have no religious tests, would be non-residential, and would teach new scientific subjects, and modern languages not taught elsewhere. UCL is proud of its radical roots. But how accurate is that self-image? To mark UCL’s ‘birthday’, this lecture looks at UCL’s ...

Like Ledsham, the first part of the name here seems to refer to Leeds or the Old English precursor, Loidis, which denoted a region rather than a town. This village’s name literally means the settlement or estate belonging to Leeds and it lies to the East of the A656 road. There was a railway station named after the village on the Castleford to Garforth line, though this station was actually adjacent to Allerton Bywater Colliery. Next week we’ll see where that station was
The village has had some interesting occurrences through history, none more so perhaps than the tale of Mary Pannal - a herbalist and cunning woman who was accused of, and executed for, witchcraft in 1603. That followed the death of a young child named William Witham in 1593 to whom she had administered a herbal mixture.
The local tradition is that Pannal was taken to the top of a hill, which still bears her name, to be hanged on a tree but it took several failed attempts, as the cord was bewitched. The hangsmen were baffled, but a bird of the crow tribe flew over, muttering slowly as it flew, “A withy, a withy, a withy!” whereupon the hangsmen got a flexible withy of wiggan from the adjoining thicket, and suspending the witch upon it
The local colliery closed in 1986 and the site is now a local nature reserve. It forms part of the green corridor in the Lower Aire Valley in Leeds which is owned by Leeds City Council and managed in partnership with the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust. The adjoining village is pretty much a separate settlement from the main village. They even have differing postcodes. There’s not much left of the colliery. The proud headstocks are long gone as is most of the infrastructure, but there are some incredibly interesting ones that remain
If you come here these days you won’t find any witches though. This is LEDSTON.

Secret Chambers and Hiding Places,
Allan FEA (1860 - 1956)
“Secret Chambers and Hiding Places” is a collection of concealments and their uses, almost all within England, although a very few passages and chambers in continental Europe are mentioned, Jacobite hidey holes in Scotland, while the final chapter of the book covers Bonnie Prince Charlie’s wanderings around Scotland, among caves and other hiding places. Most chapters are devoted to historical events; such as the the seventeenth century persecution of roman catholics (with many large houses having specially constructed “priests’ holes”), or various unpopular monarchs and their hiding places. The text is scattered with legends and true stories, with occasional skeletons found, still hiding, long centuries after the searchers have left. The author describes hidden doors, passages, rooms and pits with enormous enthusiasm … and with considerable regret when he has to describe secret places lost to demolition or modernisation. You’ll wish you could wander the country, poking into the darkest recesses of every old house you find! (Summary by Peter Yearsley)

The youth of our middling rich: how egalitarian were UCL’s founders? - UCL Lunch Hour Lecture

Speaker: Mr Colin Penman, UCL Special Collections, Thursday 9th February 2017 #ucllhl
Bring your lunch and your curiosity! UCL Lunch Hour Lectures, Tuesdays and Thursdays, Darwin Lecture Theatre, 1.15 - 1.55pm (term time)
When the plan for a university for London was outlined by the poet Thomas Campbell in a letter to The Times on 9 February 1825, a storm of controversy was unleashed by the ‘establishment’: the church, the ancient universities, and the Tory press. In many ways, this is unsurprising, as the new institution would have no religious tests, would be non-residential, and would teach new scientific subjects, and modern languages not taught elsewhere. UCL is proud of its radical roots. But how accurate is that self-image? To mark UCL’s ‘birthday’, this lecture looks at UCL’s founders, and questions their relationship with England’s establishment.
