Join Olivia Johnson, Photo Archive Assistant at Bradford Museums and Galleries, on 25 July to learn about Charles Harold Wood. This talk has been rescheduled from last year.
From motorcycle test-rider, to photographer, to inventor, C. H. Wood’s archive, spanning 70 years and over 300,000 negatives, is a vital resource in preserving Bradford’s history. Not only was he one of Bradford’s most prolific industrial and aerial photographers, but his contribution to the war effort also earned him an M.B.E. and aided the Dambusters in their successful 1943 raid.
Tickets to attend the talk in person are £5 and can be purchased via TicketTailor or in person at the Box Office on weekends when Ilkley Manor House is open. Tickets may be available on the door but will be subject to availability.
Arrive at Ilkley Manor House at 10:15am to have time to get a hot drink and biscuit. The talk will start at 10:30am, lasting roughly an hour, with time for questions at the end.
