Description
In this episode Neil takes us to age simmering with the steadily building heat of technological change and advance. We stride across a landscape of great beauty, full of the things needed to kick start a profound transformation; the natural energy of powerful rivers, land rich with minerals, coal and iron ore. Here in Coalbrookdale, in Shropshire a heady mix of human ingenuity, innovation and the commercial drive of entrepreneurs, built a bridge of mesmerising beauty which was forged in the first fires of a coming Industrial revolution that would transform the whole world!To help support this podcast sign up to Neil Oliver on Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/neiloliverNeil’s Patreon site is pack full of history, comment and current affairsInstagram account – Neil Oliver Love Letter - https://www.instagram.com/neiloliverloveletter/?hl=enYouTube Channel is at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnVR-SdKxQeTvXtUSPFCL7g Hosted on Acast.
