New here was WIdow Hepworth's Farm Where a servant was shot dead
The Pentrich Revolution of 1819 was a failed armed uprising in Derbyshire, England, led by radical reformers including Jeremiah Brandreth and John Grimes, who sought to challenge the government's repressive policies and demand political reform. The event is associated with the nearby shooting of a servant at Widow Hepworth's Farm, which marked a key moment in the rebellion's suppression and highlighted the tensions of the post-Napoleonic War period.
