Draw on Halton - Church and Temple


Summary of the 'Draw on Halton' creative challenge started - with the Fourteenth prompt being "Church and Temple"

Black and white photograph of a group of eight male bell ringers. The men are stood posed with the church bell ropes, while also holding hand bells. The group includes Mr George Tandy, who can possibly be identified as the man stood third from the left. Mr Tandy was Head Gardener at Norton Priory from 1880 to 1895.

Her Gran played the organ there, and her great Aunt was a Sunday School teacher there, her mum attended the chapel as a girl, and Helen was christened there. Of course it is now closed
