ON Tuesday (September 15), the day before the Catterick talk, Chris Lloyd is giving a special talk in St Peter’s Church, Croft-on-Tees, to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the publication of Alice in Wonderland.
The author, Lewis Carroll, grew up opposite the church, and many of his fantastic stories appear to have their roots in tales connected to the church's history.
The talk is entitled A Carollesque Magic Lantern Show, and the doors open at 7pm.
FANTASTIC STORIES: An Edwardian postcard showing two girls on bicycles approaching St Peter's Church, in Croft, where Lewis Carroll found so much inspiration
Admission on the door is £5, to include refreshments. All welcome.
