Middlewich 'Your Heritage' Photography Competition back for 2011

24th January 2011

Categories: Modern History News

Cheshire is a landscape steeped in history; it has been an industrial and agricultural land with established route-ways dating back to the Iron Age and engineered waterways from the Industrial Revolution. Each part of Cheshire is distinctive and unique.

Your brief is to capture an image of Cheshire, exploring the landscape both natural & worked and historic built environment. For 2011 we are introducing a new category that explores ‘Working Cheshire’, a chance to dig deeper into how we live and work in Cheshire today. (Old traditions verses modern thinking)

This exciting opportunity exists for young budding photographers, enthusiastic amateurs and semi– professional photographers to take part in the Annual ‘Your Heritage’ exhibition. All winners and finalists from each category will be displayed at the Folk and Boat Festival on 18th and 19th June 2011.
