I spoke with a number of people who gave commentary on their experiences of having been present on the day of the Hollinwell Incident in July 1980. Including Neil Lancashire, the regional media photographer. Whose photography of the chaos and confusion was captured on the day has endured. I spoke with Neil on the 12th January 2022.
Following correspondence with Ashfield District Council, was informed their copy of the official government report of Hollinwell Incident could be made available. A trip to Kirkby to Ashfield was able to collect the report. Using information found within the document and with the info of Bob Rickards notes and news clips which were presented in the Fortean Times article from Sept 2010. Mass Hysteria in Schools: A Worldwide History Since 1566 from Dr Robert Bartholomew and Bob Rickard. Further information from Reddit and ATS, revealed some lines of commentary, as does the BBC article from 2003, having a number of user comments.
