Benny Rothman and the 1932 Kinder Scout Mass Trespass

January 25, 2010 By 2 Comments

Thanks to Sarah Irving to letting me know about a piece she has posted on the Radical Manchester Blog about the Kinder Scout trespass. the article is written by Andrew Bibby and is an extended version of one that originally appeared in TGO Magazine.

Benny Rothman is something of a legendary figure these days who has had a big influence on the opening up of our hills and fields.

A good read. Thanks Sarah.

The article can be found here.

    A good article but note it says at the end “this article by Andrew Bibby, in a slightly different form, was published in TGO magazine, 2007″. It’s really Andrew Bibby who should have the credit.
