47 Oldham in WWII: The Last Flying Bomb and POW Camp


Listen Later

Lorna tells us all about our hometown, Oldham, in WWII. It was struck by the Last Flying Bomb of the war and was also home to the Prisoner of War Camp named Glen Mill.

There are personal stories about the POW's and their interaction with locals.
Lorna wrote her dissertation on the topic and is full of interesting titbits!
Elsewhere, Matt creates his own new segments to various degrees of success.
