Rivington Terraced Gardens: Past, present and future
Rivington Terraced Gardens were created on a barren Lancashire hillside by the soap giant William Hesketh Lever (Lord Leverhulme) as a weekend retreat. Neglected after Lever's death for many years they have long been a favourite place for many. This talk tells a little of the Gardens' history and how recent efforts have been made to secure their future as a magical place for all.
The talk will be given by Graham Gough who is a volunteer at the Rivington Terraced Gardens and is also vice-Chair of the Friends of Rivington Terraced Gardens.
Time: 19:30 BST
