My research explores the impact of large social changes on local dialect and speech. I am drawing on archival and contemporary data to analyse, promote, and curate the rich intangible heritage of Lancaster. My supervisors are Prof. Claire Nance and Dr. Danielle Turton.
This part-time collaborative doctoral award is supported by the North West Consortium Doctoral Training Partnership (NWCDTP) and is being carried out in partnership with Lancashire Archives.
