BEDWELLTY HOUSE
2.00 – 3.00 pm
Roger will cover the developments in medicine from the late 1700s and Humphrey Davey with nitrous oxide, through to the late 1800s and the development of x-rays – with a little bit of body snatching on the way.
Some of the characters we’ll meet will be Joseph Lister, Robert Liston, Lenec, Morton and Pasteur. Although not all at the same time!
This talk has been arranged to align with the Bevan Day on Sunday 6th July
Delicious refreshments are available in the Orchid House Tearoom
