The Howard Brothers

I am trying to source information, or hopefully copy of documentary, concerning the Howard brothers' fight to prevent their cottage being demolished, to make way for new houses. I believe the docu was titled: A Fight for Rose Cottage. It was made in the late 1970s, early 1980s, perhaps made by Jack Rosenthall, the late celebrated playwright. Any information greatly app.

RE: RE: The Howard Brothers

Hi Christine,

I have come across your above enquiry and thought I would get in touch as the Howard brother are my great uncles. I know the BBC did a documentary on them in the late 80's. Out of interest are you connected?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Warm Regards,
Suzanne

RE: RE: The Howard Brothers

Regarding the Howard Brothers documentary, it was part of the BBC's 40 Minutes series. I have a copy of this and also 'Look North' and 'Calendar' local news footage. They were originally on VHS but I transferred them to DVD. If you want a copy let me know
