Prospectives Heritage Day Visit

The Masonic Hall on Adelaide St. Blackpool, was again open to the public as part of the town's contribution to Heritage Week, and attracted over 70 visitors. 

Prospective Parliamentary Conservative Candidates Ron Bell (Blackpool South)  and Paul Maynard (Blackpool North and Fleetwood) both visited the Masonic Hall together to find out more about Blackpool’s Masonic history.

Peter Bentham, Vice Chairman of the Blackpool Group of Lodges, commented that one cannot gauge success by the number of people attending, but by the comments of those who did, and everyone attending seemed to go away very impressed with what they had seen and heard on their tours. We will definitely participate in any future Heritage Week programme.
