This episode begins the Power, Protest & Progress category by exploring key events in our history of protest, from the site of the Peterloo Massacre, to the London home of formerly enslaved abolitionist campaigner Olaudah Equiano. The 100 places featured in this series have been nominated by the public and chosen by a panel of judges. Together they help tell England’s fascinating history. Irreplaceable: A History of England in 100 Places is a Historic England podcast, sponsored by specialist insurer Ecclesiastical ecclesiastical.com
