Talk:Newlyn riots

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Is it possible to say what days of the week the 18th-20th May 1896 were? Did the disturbance start on a Saturday or Sunday, for instance? Also, what were the consequences of the rioting? Were there any arrests, and were there continued attempts to ban/land fish of a Sunday? I suppose that this is one of the events that has lead to the supposed antipathy between Pirates and Bucca's, although it seems from the text that Newlyn and Penzance men were already antagonistic toward each other.LessHeard vanU 21:26, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
