What’s in a Name? Place Names of North Lancashire, with Carolyn Dalton

Carolyn Dalton shares her interest in the meanings of place names with you. Every local name has a story behind it and every time you use these names you make a connection to the history of the area around you.

Talks last about an hour, plus 30 minutes for refreshments and Q&A. This talk takes place at Lancaster Maritime Museum on St George’s Quay.

Tickets £10. Visit the Museums website to book.
