Guided Walks and Talks

Join one of our experienced tour guides for a leisurely stroll around the Square and delve into the lives of some of the extraordinary men and women who lived and worked on the Square.

These regular walks are open to all and take place throughout the year. FoWS talks take place at the Central Methodist Church, Lune Street. These too can be found on Eventbrite. Please book your place with Eventbrite or contact Patricia by e-mail patricia@winckley.org.uk.
