Trafalgar Way Concert

The Trafalgar Way marks the journey in 1805 of the Naval messenger from his ship HMS Pickle docked at Falmouth to The Admiralty in London. The news he was carrying was victory at the battle of Trafalgar and the death of Lord Nelson.

During Autumn 2023, the folk group The Salts will follow Lieutenant Lapenotiere’s route, stopping at the plaques and playing concerts along the way. Their concert in Blandford will be followed a couple of weeks later by our Friday Talk about the Trafalgar Way; please Click here for more information.

Please visit The Salts website for more information, and to book tickets for the concert.

This is one of the fundraising events organised by Blandford’s Mayor, Hugo Mieville. As one of the Mayor’s chosen charities for 2023, the Museum will receive a share of the proceeds, so please support these events.
