Sobre IBD

The world-famous Feathers Hotel in Ludlow is a well-preserved Tudor coaching inn. It is visited and photographed by tourists and locals, but few know much about its history. Bernard O’Connor’s latest book on Shropshire provides a selection of over 250 years of newspaper articles that detail the sales, auctions, meetings, political corruption, landlords, landladies, births, marriages, deaths, inquests - and much more - to reveal life in The Feathers.
