‘Miss Plymley Recollects’ presented by Alison Utting

Tuesday, 25 August at 2.30pm at Shropshire Archives
Members £5, Non-members £7

Ms. Alison Utting has gained a wide recognition for her vivid presentations that spotlight women from Shropshire’s past. Katherine Plymley was a diarist, traveller, painter and naturalist, who recoded life in Shropshire between 1791 and 1827.  
Alison says; “Luckily for us, I think Katherine had a sense of the historical nature of what she was witnessing. There are more than 200 of her handwritten notebooks in the Shropshire Archives, plus several large boxes of Katherine’s beautiful watercolour paintings of butterflies, moths, and insects. This is a treasure trove for me. Being able to read someone’s own words and bring them to life for an audience is a really special experience.”
