Chorlton Good Neighbours
History talk Tues 13th October 1.30pm
Ann Knowles “History of the saints linked to local churches such as Str Ninian’s & St Werburgh’s
There are about 13 active churches in Chorlton or more than 20 if you include the surrounding area. We go past them every day, but how much to do we ever notice them?
Ann Knowles will explore saints remembered in local churches, including St Ninians and St Werburgh.
- What do they tell us about faith, memory and place?
- What connects church history with neighbourhood identity and how do old stories remain part of the local landscape?
- The talk will be of particular interest to people who enjoy local history, church buildings and community heritage.
