Riverside Inn, Wye Street, Ross has been bought & today work started in clearing it up before refurbishment. It has been a very sad sight in such a prominent position near the river so it will be great to see it come to life again. Good luck!

My new novel #awomanofopinion out 4th July (yikes!) tells the life of #marywortleymontagu who campaigned to kick the Tories out of office in 1715. History often rhymes, as #marktwain said. Come to one of the events, starting 8th July in London. @izzieghaffari @sarabethsbooks
