‘Get Carter’, and ‘Manuscript in a Red Box’

Place explored through a personal selection of the lives, novels, art, architecture, poetry and history inspired by England's industrial era.​

This short video links key episodes from both books to current locations. There’s more to the M180 than you might think! There are no ordinary places.

    I really enjoyed the post linking the 2 Humber books. The photos and quotes are really good.

    We must do something about the music though! This is where I hope Paul Frankl could perhaps help. Are you allowed to put your own music on WordPress websites.
