Next Branch Meeting is on 20th June 2006


The next meeting of the South Yorkshire Dry Stone Walling Association will be on 20th June at 20:00hrs at the Cock Inn, Birwell. I have attached a map but if you can’t read it or require directions, please email me at les@morgan-young.com and I’ll email you directions.

For those of you heading to the meeting direct from work, the Cock has home cooked food up until 20:00. It’s good fare at a reasonable price. It also has two regular cask beers and two guest cask ales – very nice!

Hope to see you there!
