Battle of Preston: Anniversaries
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, whether he has written to congratulate the organisers of the celebrations to commemorate the tercentenary of the Battle of Preston.
- Answer
-
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.
