What happened on Holcombe Moor? - at Greenmount Cricket Club, Brandlesholme Road, Bury, BL8 4DX - on Wednesday, February 25th, 2026 19:30

Local crime fiction writer, Michael Knaggs, will present a talk based on his fifth crime novel which is set on Holcombe Moor. The talk places the audience in the role of the investigation CID team. A bit different to our usual talks, but it sounds like an interesting way to spend an evening. Open to all, admission is £3 which includes a hot drink and biscuits. There will be a raffle and the bar will be open too.
