MARCH 2001 - LICHFIELD & HATHERTON GETS NEW WEBSITE!
Lichfield & Hatherton Canals Restoration Trust have launched a brand new website (this one!), with a great easy-to-remember address. We hope you will like it. We are very grateful to Ian Nelson of WRG and "Neltek" (see bottom of page), for designing and setting it up for us, and for the lesson on how to keep it going. It has now been left in the hands of Sue Williams (me). Despite being a complete novice I will do my best to keep it up to date and interesting. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or comments. Just use the Guest Book or email me at info@lhcrt.org.uk
