Come join us for this month’s Open Meeting on Monday 8th April, at 7.15pm in the Castlefield Hotel.
Ian McCarthy will be using John Greenway’s slides to revisit the 1960s and 70s including work parties, campaigns and rallies.
Ian McCarthy – has an interest in all things transport. He was employed for years as a computer designer at ICL West Gorton but his engineering interests extend to things a lot more physical. He has played a big role in the running and maintenance of the historic Clayton narrowboat Spey for many years.
We will start gathering 7.15pm at the Castlefield Hotel on Liverpool Road, Manchester M3 4JR for 7.30pm start in one of the ground floor conference rooms. The entrance to the hotel is on the side facing towards Deansgate overlooking the Castlefield outdoor arena. The talk is free to attend and everyone is welcome.
