Today (June 20), Manchester's People's History Museum has unveiled a historic banner, highly significant to the city's suffragette movement.
The Manchetser Suffragette Banner has been put on display at the city's unique museum 115 years after its first appearance in 1908, and is one of the very few banners known to have survived since the movement.
The banner has a unique history and was misplaced for many years before being found at auction in 2017, and it will be on public display at the museum from the June 21 to the January 7 next year.
It connects to the city's radical roots and will be hanging in main gallery one for visitors to come and observe for the next six months, before it is taken down and put back into storage until the centenary of all women getting the vote in 2028.
