History Talk: The Making of the Modern Matthew
Olveston Methodist Church
Olveston Parish Historical Society History Talk: Clive Burlton will describe, using some fascinating film footage, how Bristol boat builders recreated a 500 year old boat and how, taking their inspiration from John Cabot’s journey across the Atlantic in 1497, a joint UK/Canadian crew set sail ‘in his wake’, negotiating storms and a Fisheries Protection vessel as they did so!
All meetings take place in the Methodist Church, The Street, Olveston BS35 4DR at 7.30pm, with refreshments served before the start of the meeting.
Visitor fee is £3, payable on the door - includes refreshments. All welcome!
