Zoom Lecture - Shipwrecks, Hulks and Disaster on the River Severn

During the night of 25th October 1960 two river craft collided resulting in a massive explosion.  Alan Tutton described this event and also talked about the ship wrecks that can be seen along the lower reaches of the River Severn.

Many thanks to Alan for putting himself forward to give the first Badsey Society lecture via Zoom.  As a result of the talk, several members have been to Purton to see the wrecks for themselves.
