THE mayor of Pendle, Councillor Graham Roach, is inviting residents of West Craven to join him on a guided tour of Nelson Town Hall.
Cllr Roach has two dates in early 2015 when people can see behind the scenes and find out about the building’s civic history.
The tours, which will take place next Saturday, January 31, and Saturday, March 21, also allow visitors to discover how Pendle Council runs and what a modern day mayor’s job entails.
Michael Booth, the mayor’s attendant, will be the guide for the two-hour tour.
Visitors will be shown the old police cells, the Council Chamber and civic insignia before having tea and biscuits in the Members’ Room.
Groups, such as Women’s Institutes, Brownies, Scouts and voluntary organisations, as well as individuals, are all welcome.
To book one of the tours, contact the mayor’s secretary, Fiona Standring, on 01282 661636 or email fiona.standring@pendle.gov.uk.
