AGM Postponed due to snowy weather
Wincobank Hill is very pretty today but due to the extreme weather conditions we are sorry that we have to POSTPONE our AGM and much anticipated talk on the Excavations on the site of Wincobank Hall that was planned for Thursday 2nd December. Please pass the word on to anyone you know was thinking of coming - we will reschedule both AGM - so watch this space. In the meantime - get up on the hill if you are able and enjoy the snow!
