The first meeting of the year whereby Rotarian Ken Forsyth has organised a speaker - Steven Bearsley. He will be talking about the canals of Sowerby Bridge.
From the Canals and River Trust
Sowerby Bridge is where the Calder & Hebble Navigation and the Rochdale Canal meet on the edge of the Pennines. Once an industrial centre, now trendy pubs and cafes fill many of the old canal buildings.
The area is well known for its walking and cycling routes across and around the Pennines too. What a facinating place to explore the history of weaving, water mills and the role our canals played during the industrial revolution.
There will be a 2 course meal + tea / coffee as well. If you would like to attend please contact Rtn Jeff Fisher or Anne Sutcliffe.
