History Cafe: Views Of Renfrewshire

About History Cafe: Views Of Renfrewshire

For this History Cafe session, we are going to look at Views in Renfrewshire engraved by W H Lizar and published in a book by Philip Ramsay in 1839. The engravings are very detailed, and capture the County of Renfrew during the early industrial revolution.

All profites from the booking fee go to support the Beatson Cancer charity.

We like to support our hosts by purchasing drinks, etc, while we are there.

You will receive an automatic email when you book and a further email just before the event confirming locations, etc.
