The Ramsbottom Heritage Society has acquired a large number of painting, photographs and historical documents since it was formed in 1987. These have been held in storage, with limited space in the Heritage Gallery to display them. We decided that they should be displayed to the public over 2 days, Saturday 5th October 2019 and Sunday 6th October 2019 at Ramsbottom Civic Hall.
The layout around the hall was in themes based on the historic areas of Ramsbottom, such as Station and Surrounding area, Bridge Street, Carr Street, The Local Towers, Bolton Road West, Dundee Lane, Nuttall, Summerseat and Churches
The oldest paintings are from the 1800s, and the newest was a live painting of the exhibition by Stuart Barkley, a local artist, who donated his painting to the Society.
