SUMMARY:History Portal Club: Who Lived in Rowden Hill House?
DESCRIPTION:Together\, we’ll explore the site of Rowden Hill House\, most recently used as part of Chippenham Hospital but a much older property with a rich tapestry of residents – including chemists\, silk merchants and aspiring politicians. \nWhat was there before today’s house? \nWho were the families that lived there? \nWhich war hero grew up within its walls? \nThis friendly and interactive club session will explore the history of the building and its surroundings\, from its earliest mentions through to the ambitious and sensitive scheme to preserve the area for future generations.

SUMMARY:History Portal Club: Women on the Edge
DESCRIPTION:Together\, we’ll explore the town’s women who weren’t exactly respectable in the eyes of society – witches\, criminals\, herbalists\, prostitutes\, and those who didn’t conform to what a well-behaved person should have done. \nWho were some of Chippenham’s disreputable characters?\nWhere was the first executed witch in England based?\nWhat did the herbalist do to kill her patient? \nThis friendly and interactive club session will explore the history of the town’s women through the stories of those who didn’t conform\, or were caught up in events beyond their control to be branded “bad” by society at large\, and how they fit into a larger national picture.
