Britain's What's On Event Guide
An Evening at The Elms: If War Should Come
A talk by Dr Philip MacDougall; author of the book of the same title.
Just how prepared was Southern England for the outbreak of war in 1939?
On 3 September 1939 at 11am Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain made his chilling announcement that a state of war then existed between Britain and Germany. Shortly after, the air raid sirens of London and the South Coast began to scream out a warning that a raid was imminent. It was a false alarm - but many were not surprised.
