Had a tour of 'the Blackie' today. The Great Georges Community Cultural Project has been in the former congregational church since 1968 and has been in a process of refurbishment for quite a long time now.

Its due to re-open in 2007 with an extra floor to include rooms for workshops and accommodation.

Its open Saturday and Sunday Oct 28 / 29 11.00 - 14.00 for you to look round, watch metalworker Giusseppe Lund making the ornate railings for the balcony and take some refreshments.
