Summary

What was life like for kids and families in Exeter over 100 years ago? In this exciting episode, our young podcast team teams up with Dr Julia Neville, a local historian who knows all about the stories hidden in the streets of the West Quarter.

Using clues from the 1921 census, old newspapers, and real-life memories, we travel back in time to find out who lived there, what jobs they had, and what the neighbourhood was really like. Was it as rough as people said — or was there more to the story?
