Illustrated Talk

Gosport Museum & Art Gallery (The Snape Room), Walpole Road, Gosport, Hampshire, PO12 1NS

Richard recalls tragic and forgotten historic disasters in Hampshire through time. Events that may not have stayed in public memory but are no less terrible than their more famous counterparts. As always, with respect to those who were impacted…

Richard M. Jones is a historian specialising in lost ships and forgotten disasters. A serving member of the Royal Navy, he spends all his spare time digging through history to find evidence of forgotten incidents and has placed several memorials to such disasters around the UK. He has published nineteen books.

Dividing his time between Bridlington and Southampton, he always has many more projects in the pipeline and is a keen traveller and history detective.

Duration 60minutes.
