An historic collection of letters will be unveiled in the Westcountry today, the 250th anniversary of the birth of one of the letter-writers - Horatio Nelson.

The letters were written to and from British Prime Minister Henry Addington, 1st Viscount Sidmouth, in correspondence with prominent political figures of the time including Nelson, William Wilberforce and George III.

They have been saved for the nation thanks to a pounds1.6 million award from the National Heritage Memorial Fund and will be kept permanently at the Devon Record Office after the reception.

The collection consists of ...
