The programme of events run by the Harris Museum and Preston City Council to commemorate the last battle on English soil – which received nearly £50,000 of support from the Heritage Lottery Fund, alongside funding from other local groups – has been a huge success. I was delighted to write to the organisers to congratulate them on this excellent series of family events.
