2009 SPEN VALLEY CIVIC SOCIETY CALENDAR

The perfect gift for friends and family both here at home and abroad – a beautiful full colour picture calendar of Spen Valley.

The Spen Valley Civic Society are pleased to announce the publication of the Society’s spectacular 2009 calendar. The object of producing this calendar is to publicise the aims and objectives of the SVCS and some of the work and projects which it has undertaken, over a number of years, to benefit the Spen Valley. It is hoped that the sales will raise much needed funds to enable the Society to continue its work in the Spen Valley.

The calendar, which is printed in full colour, is A3 in size and depicts many historic and outstanding locations in Spen Valley as well as linking in to the Society’s successful Spen Fame Trail project which commemorates famous people, past and present, of the Valley.

Amongst the 12 illustrations are images celebrating the Valley’s Bronte heritage, historic buildings which the Society has helped to save, and the Valley’s manufacturing history showing the only car manufactured in Cleckheaton along with the famous Panther motorcycle. The arts are represented by a work by Edward Alexander Wadsworth from the Tate Gallery whilst the Society’s Savoy Square and Miners Memorial projects are included. Each image is fully explained and the calendar is a mine of information.

The calendar is on sale through local retailers at £4.50 or direct from the Society priced at £5.50 (including postage and package)
