Come join us for this month’s Open Meeting on Monday 12th February, at 7.15pm in the Castlefield Hotel.
Presented by Liz McIvor, the talk offers an interesting and different aspect of our waterways – and possibly a very Northern bias.
Liz presented the 6-part BBC series “Canals: The Making of a Nation” and is the author of the book with the same name. She also filmed the similar BBC series “Railways: The Making of a Nation”. Both continue to be repeated.
A native of Manchester she now manages at the Co-operative Heritage Trust. This includes the Co-operative Archive in Manchester and the Pioneers Museum in Rochdale.
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.
