A shopkeeper''s daughter sketches customers with a piece of coal. A desperate highwayman, condemned to death, scratches his initials into his prison cell door.Writing on the Wall goes in search of the hidden voices of Britain''s most rebellious and transformative era - a time when anyone in possession of a sharp point and ready surface could find their voice and immortalise their message.
