Now there may still be time to book a ticket to stroll Chorlton’s past.
As part of Chorlton Book Festival we will be meeting outside the Library on Manchester Road.
And in the course of an hour we will discover dark deeds, silly stories and just how the tiny hamlet of Martledge became New Chorlton.
Along the way we will recreate that lost place, encounter some historic Chorlton individuals, uncover an awful murder and learn about the first Sedge Lynn, the place called the Isles, and our own Ice Rink.
The walk will start from the Library on Sunday November 18 at 2pm and take about an hour, after which we will relax in The Edge Theatre, Manchester Road
Beverley at the library informs me that “tickets are £7.50 including soup and a roll at the Dressing Room café, The Edge Theatre, Manchester Road, M21 9JG after the walk. Booking is essential for this popular event.
Please visit Chorlton Library or call 0161227 3700.
Sunday 18 November 2 - 4pm “
