The Society was formed in 2000 by a small group of people interested in the history of their town. We now have some fifty members who meet on the last Monday of each month in Ryecroft Hall on Manchester Road.
This website is aimed at giving our activities greater publicity.
Membership subscriptions are £7.50 per year single, £10.00 per year family, and £12.00 per year postal which includes magazines, newsletters etcetera.
