This is the best summary I could come up with:

Stories of an old bacon factory in Wiltshire, a rollerskating hotspot in Birmingham and a pigeon fanciers’ enclave in West Yorkshire are to be celebrated as part of an attempt to preserve England’s working-class heritage.

Sean Curran, the head of inclusion at Historic England, said: “The real danger is that it’s easy to overlook working-class stories.

There’s the idea of working-class lives and stories being a bit more ephemeral, maybe – more based on story-telling traditions and the kind of things people don’t necessarily keep.

A touring exhibition is to tell the story of Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities living in Greensand Country, Bedfordshire, the last remnants of ancient heathland.

In east London, the role of the Bridge House pub in Canning Town in launching bands such as Iron Maiden, Dire Straits and Depeche Mode will be studied.

By way of contrast, a new trail will be produced in the North Yorkshire village of Skinningrove to tell the story of the area through the tales of its pigeon fanciers.
