Curator Talk: Donny Scotland

Saturday 22nd March, 11am – 12pm

In 1136 King Stephen gave the manor of Doncaster to the son and heir of the king of Scotland. In the present century, the idea has gained widespread currency that this long-ago gift means Doncaster is part of Scotland. How has this come about and can it be justified in any way? Join our Collections and Exhibitions Officer, Charles Kelham, to find out. 

Tickets: £5
