Plague and Pestilence

Plague and Pestilence

The March History talk by Paul Harding from Discover History was about Plague and Pestilence in Worcester and over 75 people enjoyed a highly entertaining talk again, if not a bit gruesome at times! Whilst most people consider the plague to be the Black Death in 1349 there were a number of other occasions when plague or pestilence struck the country, notably in the 17th Century.  More details and pictures from the talk can be seen here:
