The Trafalgar Way marks the journey in 1805 of the Naval messenger from his ship HMS Pickle docked at Falmouth to The Admiralty in London. The news he was carrying was victory at the battle of Trafalgar and the death of Lord Nelson.
Last year 2023 The Salts followed Lieutenant Lapenotiere’s route, stopping at the plaques and playing concerts along the way. Culminating with a celebratory concert on "Pickle Night” in central London close to The Admiralty and Trafalgar Square.
