A massive thank you to Philippa McHugh who delivered an engaging and informative talk last night on how the glaciers, lakes and rivers affected, and were affected by, the local landscape during the last ice age 18,000 years ago. Thanks also to Alan Pearson who pulled most of the imagery and information together and was in the audience. Huge thanks too to the record number of society members and visitors who attended in person or on Zoom.
The talk was part of the History Society’s monthly meeting, in the Civic Centre on North Street, held on Wednesday 10th September 2025. Our next meeting will be on Wednesday 8th October and will include a talk by Pam Brook and Helen Farrar on “Parachutes, Escape Maps and Wedding Dresses: Keighley Silk and Artificial Silk Weavers’ Contribution to the War Effort”.
