May outing
Whitley Village Hall Whitley, United KingdomCANCELLED DUE TO LACK OF SUPPORT – See Pat for refund. A day trip to the British Ironworks Centre near Oswestry (SY11 4JH). Coach from WVH - leaving by 10am, returning for 4.30-5pm. See Jean for more details. Although this sounds like a metal factory it is anything but! It is a very large sculpture park with hundreds of exhibits made from metallic parts. It can be enjoyed by all ages - so possibly a good diversion for your grandchildren!!
