A TALK organised by the Heritage Society is a must for anyone interested in the history of Northwich.

For Hugh Roberts will speak on his 15 years spent researching the life of Ludwig Mond - co-founder of Brunner Mond.

Hugh, who lives in Hartford, describes Mond as "a human dynamo who never stopped working. His enterprise led to the transformation of Northwich."

Ludwig Mond launched two other companies and the talk will provide a fascinating insight into his character.

It will also include anecdotes such as how Hugh managed to come across an original portrait of the man.

The talk is at Mid Cheshire College on Friday, December 8, at 8pm.
