To mark Women's History Month, archivists Victoria McCann and Kathryn Newman are joined by Professor Amanda Vickery, Queen Mary University, London and Browsholme Archivist, Anna Watson to talk about women's lives in the long eighteenth century in Lancashire, by looking at diaries and court records. From the gentry life of Elizabeth Parker Shackleton to a harrowing example of domestic violence in the Quarter Sessions records, women's voices speak to us down the centuries and through our surviving written heritage.
