Chance to learn from The Herald's historian

The lecturers include The Herald columnist Chris Robinson, who will share his vast knowledge of the history of our city.

The classes have been organised by On Course South West, which runs classes for adults across Plymouth.

As well as Chris, the team of teachers includes chef Jos Wellman, artists Polly Plouviez and Stacey Hunter, and former journalist Andy Breare.

Chris has been documenting the city in words and pictures since 1978, and to date has written over 30 books on various aspects of life in Plymouth over the last 500 years.

Currently working on the first comprehensive history of Plympton, he is now looking forward to sharing his knowledge during the history courses with adult education provider On Course South West (OCSW).
