Leader: John Wright Objectives: As the name
implies, the group is interested in exploring Britain's industrial heritage both
in the historic sense, but also in terms of current industry - our heritage of
the future.
It is not essential to have a technical background, to fully participate in this group. Many of the current members have an engineering, scientific or technical background and are always keen to help out with information. However we all try to contribute something to the group. It should be noted that on occasion we have been provided with and been required to don hard hats, overalls etc.
Previous activities have included visits to a Sewage pumping station, the
Wadesmill A10 bypass, the Technical Welding Institute, a Power Station fuelled
by , “chicken litter”, the Channel Tunnel Rail Link project, a tidal mill
and the Faraday lecture in London.
