Have just read in Look Local' that the Hillsborough and Owlerton Local History Group have a talk on Wardsend Cemetery and Hillsborough Barracks on THURSDAY 19th JUNE at 7.45pm given by Pete Quincy. Presume it's open to all? The venue is the Hillsborough Sports Arena, Middlewood Road side of Hillsborough Park.

Should be fascinating!
