Eighteen political protesters are killed and over 400 are injured in The Peterloo Massacre at St Peter's Field, Manchester, UK, when British cavalry charge into a crowd of 60,000
Eighteen political protesters are killed and over 400 are injured in The Peterloo Massacre at St Peter's Field, Manchester, UK, when British cavalry charge into a crowd of 60 – 80,000 people that have gathered to demand the reform of parliamentary representation. This infamous incident will inspire the song Ned Ludd Part 5 on electric folk group Steeleye Span's 2006 album Bloody Men, and the song Peterloo by The Oldham Tinkers.
