REVIEW
George Sheeran gave a very interesting talk on the development
of Keighley during the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries setting
the scene for the introduction of the Public Library in
1904. About 20 people attended and were very interested
in what he had to say. The talk was illustrated with slides
and overheads. |
