Dick Turpin: The Man Behind the Myth

Few historical figures have been transformed by legend as completely as Dick Turpin. The real man was not the dashing, romantic highwayman of popular imagination, but a ruthless and often violent criminal whose enduring reputation was largely created long after his death.

Join us as we separate fact from fiction and discover the true story of one of Britain's most infamous outlaws. Explore Turpin's early life, his criminal career, and how Victorian writers and popular culture turned him into a heroic folk figure, complete with the legendary ride to York.

This fascinating talk reveals the history behind the myth and uncovers the real Dick Turpin—a far more complex and intriguing character than the legends would have us believe.
