Description
We are delighted to welcome Chris Robinson to Market Hall for an evening discussing the history of Devonport.
Author of ‘A History of Devonport’, Chris Robinson will give an illustrated look at how the community around the King’s Dock on the Hamoaze grew spectacularly from the late seventeenth century to the early twenty first century. At one point overtaking Plymouth in population terms, but nevertheless being forced to be absorbed by it’s more ancient neighbour in 1914.
