Very sad to hear that our friend and former member Reg Edwards died this month after a long illness. He was an extremely knowledgeable historian, contributing to the People of the Potteries book, our #RevealingVoices project and cataloguing all of the #LastBottleOvenFiring tapes
Good morning Chinley, Chapel and Manchester from the top of Eccles Pike.

Only the richest 4% of people pay Inheritance Tax. Only the richest 1.5% of farmers will pay HALF Inheritance Tax spread over 10 years. This is a protest funded by the obscenely wealthy who want to pay no tax at all.

Another afternoon and early morning trip with Steve Wood, moving Bream from Milton on the Caldon to Stone on the Trent & Mersey Canal. A Stokie welcoming party met us as we left Planet Lock.
The end of the Caldon #Canal is among the country’s most scenic waterways. A pleasure to spend another afternoon with Steve Wood on Bream from Froghall to Denford.
Three excellent days in Dunfermline with @HTNmembers for this year’s Heritage Trust Network conference. Great to learn about good practice, see some wonderful projects, catch up with old friends and make new contacts.

Our grand final lunch in The Abbey Church of Dunfermline was kindly sponsored by Historic Environment Scotland and supplied by local cafe Vegan 269! All to say now is safe travels homewards, and already looking forward to the next one… see you next time!
