Looking Back: A guided walk-and-talk over the Rowley Hills with archive photographs.

Led by Mike Poulton and Jim Rippin

10-30am 13.00pm, 15th September 2018.

Cost: £6 (all proceeds go to the Friends of Rowley Hills)

We are delighted to announce this newly developed guided walk-and-talk based around a series of remarkable photographs taken by Jim Rippin over the last seventy years. The walk will invite us to see the Rowley Hills landscape in new and fascinating ways, helping us to reflect on the many changes that have taken place within living memory.

Jim Rippin has lived in the area all his life and spent much of it exploring and documenting with his camera. Mike Poulton is also a native of the area and has dedicated much of his life to help document, preserve and celebrate the flora and fauna of this unique landscape.

Working together they have developed this walk-and-talk to share their own rich insights and historical information about this much-loved landscape. We invite you to come along and join us to share your own views, photographs, and experiences of this iconic area.
