Please consider joining Plymouth History Forums! The purpose of this discussion board is to promote interest and discussion on the history of Plymouth. Plymouth is a city with a long, proud, and fascinating history that is often undervalued or even totally ignored, and sadly, it seems on many occasions it is Plymothians who are the worst offenders! Can a message board make a difference to the way we think about our city? We at Plymouth History Forums would like to think it can, and with the help and support of our members will try to make Plymouth proud again.
