Welcome to new 2016/2017 season

We have just finalised next year's programme. Details can be found by clicking on the 'Programme 2016/2017 ' tab above. The first talk is on Thursday 22nd September.

Heritage Open Days and Chester Heritage Festival

Heritage Open Days are opportunities to visit places not normally open to the public.

There is a national scheme, which co-ordinates events over the country, and a local Chester festival.

The national scheme kicks off on September 8th with some 5000 events. Details can be found on https://www.heritageopendays.org.uk/ You can search this site for local events. I noted some 65 places to visit within 10 miles of Tarporley.

CW&C and Chester Civic Trust have extended the Open Day theme by organising a Chester Heritage Festival (3rd - 11th September). This Festival includes a week of talks, film showings and tours. Please see http://historyandheritage.westcheshiremuseums.co.uk/ for more information.
