Biographical Presentation (youtube)

The Office of Public Works has uploaded a new video, Lori Moriarty presenting on “The  Lives and Afterlives of the Ladies of Llangollen.”

A useful “primer” (lasting just over 49 minutes) for those who don’t know the “history” of Eleanor Butler and Sarah Ponsonby – known collectively as “the Ladies of Llangollen”. Also a decent “refresher” for those hoping to learn, or see (photos!), something new. Lori goes back to the earliest history, showing quotes and pictures, narrowing in at the starting point – unhappiness at home (especially for Sarah).

Thanks to LADIES OF LLANGOLLEN blog reader Eilís, for the heads up!
