Our entertainment this evening was provided by our guest speaker Roger Guttridge, who regaled us with stories of Dorset Smugglers through the ages, including history of some of his own ancestors who for a time were very well known “in the trade”. Roger, a well-known local author spoke for well over an hour and provided us with background material and clarification of many of the stories regarding smugglers, tunnels and the prolific smuggling trade.
