Our indoor meetings are always held at Central Methodist Church on Baker Street at the time of 2pm – 4pm (ish). Usually it is £2 per person to cover the cost of a speaker and the hire of the room.
At the March meeting Robert Mee came to tell us about the History along the Erewash Trail. He explained the trail was 30 miles as a round journey from Langley Mill to Long Eaton and back so in one hour we would have to move at 30mph to get the whole trail covered. He thought that each town we passed could really have a talk of its own but he showed ‘then and now’ images as we went along. Perhaps some of us could drive over to the river Erewash which isn’t very far away to see some of the sights he showed.
The April meeting is a visit to The National Arboretum by Vallances coach leaving Ogle Street in Hucknall at 10.30am on Wednesday 15th April. We leave the Arboretum at 4pm.
For our May meeting we are back indoors to hear David Speed telling us about ‘Beauvale Priory – Between Two Worlds’.
