THERE'S no holding down Turton Local History Society. After the publication of its 21st book -- Jim Francis's history of the Quarlton area -- comes news that another veteran member, Fred Horridge, is hard at work on number 22 -- the history of Hardy Mill area of Harwood. Fred has already produced one book on the Harwood Vale area. News of the latest work -- expected to be published next summer -- came as Jim Francis gave a slide talk last weekend to launch the new Quarlton book. Longsight Church hall at Harwood was packed for the event.
