Regular activities, events and meetings

Bower Ashton and anything within a reasonable walking distances, a mile or less usually, roughly thats about 20 minutes walk or less for most. Surprising to me at least what's going on close by.

Where there are contacts and links I suggest you check before going. If you want to search the page try using the 'F3' key.
