A rare event it seems, last one looks like it was in 2016.

A bit of a lost money making opportunity I would have thought.

We were given an unofficial tour. I just went round and asked and they said how about tomorrow? So we did. Very interesting. Another side to CRT.
	Quiet minds cannot be perplexed or frightened but go on in fortune or misfortune at their own private pace, like a clock during a thunderstorm. I hope that I never become famous and someone trawls my contributions on this site looking for the odd post which may be offensive. Force them to pluralise words by putting apostrophes in, then everyone will mock them as imbeciles!

Having seen Martins post that's just what I was considering. No harm in being cheeky. In the 80s they used to make gates at Callis Mill, between Todmorden and Hebden Bridge. Mill has gone now.
