All over it @colinmccormick.bsky.social as were my sixth formers…doing ‘research’ in the ‘Woodrow’s Wetherspoons’ on Botchergate. Even more reasons why @histassoc.bsky.social conference should come to Carlisle…as if a castle, cathedral, guild hall, tithe barn & Roman fort and wall weren’t enough 🙄🤣

There is a blue plaque on the house on Warwick Road and the ‘Spoons on Botchergate is named after him. My Yr 12s used to say they had to go in there to do some ‘research’ 🤦🏻‍♀️
