Forthcoming events.....

Don't forget our Deer Parks talk is being given by Nigel Neil on Thursday 25th June at 7.30pm in Chipping Village Hall - just turn up for a fascinating insight to medieval manors, landownership patterns and stories of some of the great characters of the area.

We also have plans to run a stall at Chipping Show on Saturday 24th August where you can have a go at place name bingo or make a deer sculpture.....and then on Tuesday 10th September we will be running a trip to Lancashire Archives in Preston to see first hand some of the documents used in the research work and to unveil some of the mysteries of archive research - including reading old fashioned handwriting, like this!
