Online Talk on the Refurbishment of Boston Manor House


Brentford & Chiswick Local History Society hosts lecture by John Collins


Work taking place on the refurbishment of Boston Manor House

The next event to be hosted by the Brentford & Chiswick Local History Society will be an online talk by John Collins entitled "Refurbishing Boston Manor House".

The society says it should be fascinating for those interested in historic houses and in the history of Brentford.

Hounslow’s Historic Houses Manager, John Collins, will reveal the work that has been undertaken recently at Boston Manor, describe how its story will be presented to visitors when it re-opens and the ways in which the restored building will be used.

The talk takes place on Zoom at 7.30pm on Monday 17 October. The society will open the event at 7.15pm to allow people to get settled before the formal start.

As usual there will be no charge to join this event but you must reserve your place via Ticket Tailor.

Like Reading Articles Like This? Help Us Produce More

This site remains committed to providing local community news and public interest journalism.

Articles such as the one above are integral to what we do. We aim to feature as much as possible on local societies, charities based in the area, fundraising efforts by residents, community-based initiatives and even helping people find missing pets.

We’ve always done that and won’t be changing, in fact we’d like to do more.

However, the readership that these stories generates is often below that needed to cover the cost of producing them. Our financial resources are limited and the local media environment is intensely competitive so there is a constraint on what we can do.

We are therefore asking our readers to consider offering financial support to these efforts. Any money given will help support community and public interest news and the expansion of our coverage in this area.

A suggested monthly payment is £8 but we would be grateful for any amount for instance if you think this site offers the equivalent value of a subscription to a daily printed newspaper you may wish to consider £20 per month. If neither of these amounts is suitable for you then contact info@neighbournet.com and we can set up an alternative. All payments are made through a secure web site.

One-off donations are also appreciated. Choose The Amount You Wish To Contribute.

If you do support us in this way we’d be interested to hear what kind of articles you would like to see more of on the site – send your suggestions to the editor.

For businesses we offer the chance to be a corporate sponsor of community content on the site. For £30 plus VAT per month you will be the designated sponsor of at least one article a month with your logo appearing if supplied. If there is a specific community group or initiative you’d like to support we can make sure your sponsorship is featured on related content for a one off payment of £50 plus VAT. All payments are made through a secure web site.
