Invitation to the Friends of Hebden Bridge Station from the Hebden Bridge Signal Box Heritage Group

Calder Valley Community Land Trust now has the lease to the signal box from Network Rail, and the Hebden Bridge Signal Box Heritage Group are holding a working party on Sunday 12th October from 10:30 am onwards to clear the vegetation (including brambles and large saplings) that have grown over the last 7 years since the box closed. The group will also be having a look inside the box prior to the work beginning to fit the holiday accommodation pod. Since The Friends of Hebden Bridge Station initiated the saving of the signal box for the community, it was agreed that they should also be invited on 12th October. If you attend, please come armed with gardening gloves, and some gardening tools if you have them.
