Public art by Marple Locks. Peak Forest C

GORDON MILLS 1935-2006

This display, based on Stockport Council's 2006 Gold Medal Winning entry to the RHS Tatton Show, is dedicated to the memory of Gordon Mills.

 

Remembered as a printer, publisher, author and photographer with a vast knowledge of Marple's local history, his legacy of publications will continue to give pleasure for many years to come. Gordon was also a dedicated campaigner for the restoration of the canals and waterways and a great fundraiser for the British Heart Foundation, but most importantly of all he was a devoted family man. Marple is a better place for his contribution.

 

The display was recreated as a joint project between Maple Locks Heritage Society and the Friends of Marple Memorial Park. Funding was provided by Stockport Council, The Marple Website and Marple Area Committee.

Is it just me or are we beginning to think that anything with water in it counts a 'waterway'?

 

Interesting question - all views welcome, of course - my databse has fewer entries for early December than most other times of the year. ...
