First World War Internment Camps

Our popular lecture series continues with the story of a lessor know part of Lancaster's history. You may have heard of Prisoner of War Camps in Stalinist Russia, but did you know that Lancaster was home to an internment camp on Caton Road? Henry Holborn reveals this hidden history.
