In this special episode, we head on over to Hartlepool’s Headland to speak with the staff and volunteers of the Heugh Battery Museum, the site of the UK’s only First World War battlefield.

We chat about some of the topics covered in our earlier episode on the Bombardment of the Hartlepools, as well as the museum’s role in preserving that history along with its place in the local community.

Big thanks (in order of appearance) to Gordon, Joshua, Ian, Diane, and Lynn, and to rest of the staff and volunteers at the museum. 

If you’re interested in learning more about the battery’s place in history, do check out Ep 2: Bombardment of the Hartlepools.
