Chatburn Men’s Society
We are pleased to announce our next event — a talk by Ray Couldwell entitled “Those Were the Days”.
Join us on Monday, 15th December at 7:00pm in Chatburn Village Hall for a nostalgic and entertaining evening as Ray takes us back to the 1950s and 60s. His talk features fond (and often funny) memories of tin baths, Ewbank sweepers, the nit nurse, and kitchenettes — with plenty of audience participation and shared recollections of times gone by.
Admission is £5 per person, and as always, this event is open to everyone, if you are interested please contact Steven on 07834 616966.
Looking ahead, bowling will commence in the New Year at West Bradford, and there are already plans in motion for further talks throughout 2026.
Past Events
Held in March 2025 - We enjoyed an inaugural fun and friendly evening of indoor bowls at West Bradford Village Hall. While the standard of play may not have been the highest, the spirit of the evening more than made up for it!
Held on Wednesday 21st May - 7.00pm - West Bradford Village Hall - Bowling
Another successful evening attended by 10 willing participants.
There was be a small charge of £6 to help cover costs.
This includes a tea or coffee
Held on Monday 23rd June - 7.30pm - Chatburn Village Hall - Speaker
Guest speaker, Mr. Peter Del Strother, who gave us a talk on the ‘History of Clitheroe’.
Very interesting insight into the local history, particularly the cemement process.
Donations on the night went to Prostate Cancer UK in support of their excellent work.
Held on Monday 8th September - 7:30pm - Chatburn Village Hall.
Alice Nutter, one of the infamous (allegedly) Pendle Witches. The presentation will be given by local historian Brian Jeffery. As with previous events this is open to everyone with a suggested donation of £5 which again will be going to Prostate Cancer UK.
We enjoyed an interesting presentation and learned how Brian researched the subject. The evidence presented would seem to indicate that Alice was hard done too. It was more likely that she didn't speak at her trial due to her age (72) and that she was suffering from dementure.
I hope we are more enlightened in this modern era or are we?
