7 - 8 September:
Buxton Heritage Open Days
'Dunkirk the Prequel'
Alison and Derek in the Buxton Pump Room
The theme for this year’s national Heritage Open Days festival (6th – 15th September) was ‘Routes, networks and connections’ and we accepted an invitation from the Vision Buxton Marketing Group to give a talk on our Twinning and the origins of Buxton’s connection with Oignies.
Our presentation was put together by Derek Thomas and Alison Hales and delivered to an interested audience of both local residents and visitors to our town at The Pump Room over the two evenings of 7th and 8th September.
You can read more about the town of Oignies and its' historical links to Buxton here.
