open to the public for a small fee on a regular

social history of Nidderdale. Talks and visits are
occasionally organised.
In order to become more resilient, the CIO
applied for and was awarded a grant from the
National Lottery Heritage Fund. This resilience
project started in July 2021 and continued
officially until 30 June 2024. The project included
preparing documentation for submission to The
Arts Council in order to achieve national
