“A walk around Calne with Joseph Priestley” explores the town of 250 years ago when Priestley lived here. Famous for his discovery of oxygen, Priestley presents an insight into his life and times and takes us on a journey through the Calne of the 1770’s. The walk is approximately 0.75 miles in length and of generally flat terrain with some gentle gradients. It begins by the Piggy Bank, The Strand, Calne (SN11 0EN) and finishes by the Lansdowne Strand Hotel (SN11 0EH).

The cost is £10 per adult. There is no charge for accompanied children (under 18). Please pay by cash on the day. I need to know numbers so please use the contact form on the website or email me directly at nickbaxter.history@gmail.com Alternatively text me on 07368 421339

The walk is on Saturday 22nd August and again on Wednesday 26th August. Both begin by the Piggy Bank at 2 pm (SN11 0EN).
