SUMMARY:Newcastle trams & the Tramways Committee before 1914
DESCRIPTION:Free talk… \nIn June 1913\, members of Newcastle City Council met to celebrate the opening of the extension of the tram network across Benton Bank and into Heaton. Their meeting was filmed by local film-makers Henderson’s. \nThis talk will draw on evidence from this film\, as well as from records held in The Tyne and Wear Archives Service and The Common Room\, to tell the story of the city’s tramways before 1914\, and the city councillors who were responsible for them. \nLawrence Napper is a senior lecturer in Film Studies at Kings College. Film excepts will be accompanied by Radio 4’s Neil Brand. \nThis event is part of The Common Room’s Heritage Open Days offer – why not check out the other fantastic free events available across the city at https://www.heritageopendays.org.uk/
