Description:
This booklet is the second in a series of three, which will take you round the sites of Sherborne's old inns and breweries. All walks start from Sherborne Museum, and the second of these follows a route to the north of the Museum. It's not a difficult walk, and should take around about an hour on a sunny summer's evening. If you allow a little longer, you can sample a pint of beer in one of the pubs en route, or return at the end to the one that looked the most promising.

Description:
Why did the Germans launch a nuisance raid against Sherborne on 6 July 1940? Why have historical accounts of the Sherborne bombing raid of 30 September 1940 been significantly in error? Why have Sherborne's secret factories never been recognised for their outstanding contribution to Britain's war effort during World War Two? Making use of previously unrecognised German records, the author sets out to provide answers to these questions and to unravel the story behind a unique set of photographs held by Sherborne Museum – taken after the raid by an intrepid woman named Lizette Staveley.

Description:
The Monmouth Rebellion set the nephew, the Duke of Monmouth, against his uncle, King James, and resulted in the last major battle fought on English soil. Monmouth was defeated, and this account details the effect of the Rebellion and its aftermath on Sherborne and its surrounding area. After the battle of Sedgemoor on Monday, 6 July 1685, great efforts were made to round up the rebels still at large. Those not put to death by the army appeared before the 'Bloody Assizes' and twelve were executed at Sherborne on Tuesday, 15 September 1685. Others were marched through the town for transportation and servitude in the West Indies, the piteous procession watched by the Sherborne local populace.The account also tells how Sherborne was caught up in the sequel in 1688 when William, Prince of Orange, invaded - his invasion resulting in the so called 'Glorious Revolution' and the crowning of William and his wife, Mary, as joint King and Queen, in place of her father, James.
