KandA Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Can anyone help me please? Am to attend a meeting to discuss a possible 'school walk' to look at historical sites on (or can be seen from) Wincobank Hill and Concord Park. The walk will be supported by relevant lessons / activities. My knowledge of the area is a little limited. Any ideas please? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
