Tales from the Bury St Edmunds Pageant - (4) Liz Cole
Liz Cole (nee Ascott) was born and bred in Sudbury in Suffolk. In 1959 her family became involved with the pageant of Magna Carta in Bury St Edmunds through the Eatanswill Society (the penultimate scene featured the infamous Eatanswill election scene from Dickens's Pickwick Papers, and was supposedly based on the town of Sudbury).
Liz has very kindly allowed us to share some extracts from the interview, which you can listen to in the SoundCloud player below, as well as some photos from the scrapbook she kept as a 14 year old during the pageant!
