' He who holds the Tower of London has the Keys of England in his hand '
3 — ' The Water Dungeon '
Production by David Davis
There is fascinating detective work to be done at the Tower of London. Old books tell of secret passages and whispering galleries like the one from which Martin and Nicholas spied on Father Pole, but some of the darkest and most sinister corners have disappeared for ever. The terrible Flint Tower (Lytle Helle) has been twice rebuilt since Armada Year; and although, if you visit -the fortress, you will still find a Develin Tower, in 1588 this name belonged to what is now the Devereux. Tradition says that between these two towers-the Flint and its neighbour, the old Develin — lay that black and noisome water-dungeon known as the Pit.

Talk by Adam Curle
Professor of Education and Psychology,
University College of the South West
Professor Curie carried out a survey of community behaviour and development in a rural area in England In -the course of these studies he came to the conclusion that communities react somewhat like individuals if they suffer sudden disruptive changes. In this talk he describes two unhappy villages and one happy village, and he suggests that the behaviour of the inhabitants — suspicious, aggressive, or serene — was the result of what had happened to the villages, economically and socially, in the last thirty years.
