Live in Eastgate House – Friday

Picture of the readers

Anna, Sarah and Sam read extracts from the Seventh Traveller

The sun was shining down on old Rochester, as day one of the Dickens Festival commenced. Our intrepid readers are pictured reading extracts from ‘The Legend of Swift Nick’. 

Swift Nick Nevison was a gentleman and a highwayman. He rode 200 miles in one day from Gads Hill to York, a feat wrongly attributed to Dick Turpin. In this extract, Dick Turpin and Nick Nevison are arguing in a bar.
