'All Change' Act 2 Scene 5 - McConnell and the Radcliffe Trustees.
ACT TWO
Scene 5 : McConnell and the Radcliffe Trustees.
Wolverton’s expansion brought McConnell into contact with the guardians of the John Radcliffe Trust. In a bid to inhibit growth they refused to sell land around Wolverton. The Company turned to a Stantonbury farmer who allowed them to buy the land on which they built the ‘model village’ of Stantonbury, (known as New Bradwell). The New Bradwell song used material in a contemporary edition of the Illustrated London News.
Mr. Driver’s report was found in the Bodleian library.
(Descriptions adapted from the script notes in ‘All Change’ booklet – 1977).
