This Friday at KPS ...

On 1st July, Kingswood Photographic Society has its third Summer Night Outings of the year.  The location is the spectacular Dundas Aqueduct and Brassknocker Basin.

Summer may have started by then and we are visiting the Kennet and Avon Canal where it crosses the River Avon via this scheduled monument.  There are boats, bridges, countryside and artefacts from the history of the canals.  Sun is not guaranteed.  Wear comfortable shoes and mosquito repellent if you know it helps you as there is a lot of water in the area.

Coming from Bristol via the A4 and the A36 it is possible to go up Widcombe Hill, along Claverton Down Road and down Brassknocker Hill if you consult your maps for a shorter route. Otherwise, follow the A36 through Bath and out on the Warminster Road to the traffic lights at the foot of Brassknocker Hill where the B3108 turns off 90 degrees left to Limpley Stoke and Bradford on Avon.  The canal marina etc is accessed from another 90 degrees left turning off the B3108 shortly after the traffic lights so be prepared.  Go straight ahead to the car park. We will meet there for 7.00pm.

Look up The Hop Pole Inn in Limpley Stoke, a 15th century inn where we can socialise at the end.

These types of evenings provide a great chance for members to spend time together, for taking photographs and sharing photographic knowledge or simply socialising with one other.  Any questions about this or other outings, please contact Hilary, hkcroft@gmail.com or 01380 722288.

For information about Kingswood Photographic Society, please pop onto our website, http://kingswoodps.co.uk/.  Details of previous KPS outings are given on the webpageSocial Page’.

Looking forward to seeing you all this Friday  at 7pm.

15th July - Clifton Suspension Bridge (From the Downs near the Camera Obscura, down over the bridge and back)
12th August -  M Shed and Harbourside
