Maritime heritage stories from the TorridgeShipbuilding wasn’t the only economic activity thriving along the Torridge estuary. The history of the riverside communities involves timber &amp; emigration, tobacco &amp; pottery, coal mining &amp; gravel extraction, fisheries &amp; agriculture, energy &amp; enterprise. The Torridge estuary has a history shaped by its geography as well as by national &amp; international events. Mike is Chair of the Way of the Wharves Charity and lead author on the recent book ‘A History of East the Water, Bideford’. He explores how to bring these stories to life and interest a wider audience.
