To be held on Monday October 12th

Tony Coverdale’s talk will share fascinating insights about the development of once commonplace copper and brass mills in the Avon valley from 1690 and how these local mills became key parts in a global trade system. The story starts with the experimental coal-fired smelting of Cornish copper ores on the banks of the Avon using Bristol coal and culminates with a sophisticated multi-site complex of mills and a trading system delivering products across Britain, Africa and North America.

The event will be held at the St. Stephen’s Centre (St. Stephen’s Church undercroft), Lansdown Road, Bath, BA1 5SX.

Date Monday October 12th. Doors open at 7:00m for serving wine and soft drinks, Tony will start at 7.30 and finish will be around 8:30 pm.

Tickets are £12.50, including a glass of wine are available in advance and on the door.

The event is being organised by the St Stephens Millennium Green Trust with all profits from the event going to the upkeep of the Green.
