Contact: [email protected] A Life of Public Service: the Career of Benjamin Owen Davies, 1‐1 Christopher Stevens, Canterbury Christ Church University 1 The assumption that early and mid-twentieth-century British politics was determined nationally by class alignment has, it might be surmised, led to a decline in the number of detailed local studies of the sort, which historians of the nineteenth-century use to understand political change. Teesside is an area of particular neglect. Neither Stockton- on-Tees, which elected the Tory, Harold Macmillan, in 1924, 1931 and 1935, nor Middlesbrough, where an authentic Liberalism held sway until 1945, meet the expectations of the class-based model. Only a detailed local study will fill the gap.1 The lack of interest in twentieth-century local studies has, in turn, led to the neglect of a number of local actors, those who either forsook, or were unable to acquire, a rôle on the national stage, but were, nevertheless, significant in a local or regional setting.
