MASTHEADS FOR JUNE 2017

Here's our Masthead for the rest of the month, featuring a photo by Stephen Green which we think sums up the spirit of the FAB Festival so well.
Photo: Stephen Green
Stephen Green took many photos of this year's incredible Middlewich FAB Festival, and he kindly allowed us to borrow one in particular which, we feel, sums up the spirit of the Festival, its sheer exuberance and sense of fun. 
Here's the original photo which we incorporated into our Masthead from the end of the Festival until the end of June.
 With many thanks to Stephen and to all who work so hard to put this event on each year and make sure it runs smoothly. There's something about the 'Folk & Boat' which is indefinable and makes it unique. Others have tried to replicate it, and failed. That's Middlewich for you, though! Dave Roberts, Editor

MIDDLEWICH FROM THE SKY

This all too short video appeared recently on the Middlewich Community Group on Facebook. It shows some stunning shots of the Parish Church, the Trent & Mersey Canal and the British Salt Works in Booth Lane.
Familiar elements which make Middlewich the town it is today, but shown from a new angle thanks to new 'drone' technology.
We're hoping that a longer version will be forthcoming soon.

Many thanks to HENRY COLE for permission to use his work.

You can view the video here.
