CREDITON and District U3A is set to host a talk on “weird” buildings in the West Country.

Robert Hesketh will speak on the subject at the Boniface Centre on Wednesday, January 21 from 10am to 12pm.

“The West Country has more than its fair share of weird buildings,” the event’s advertisement reads.

“This talk explores an eclectic selection. This includes the last castle built in England and a pub constructed like a pack of cards in Devon; a chapel sprouting from the rocks and King Arthur’s Halls in Cornwall; a lighthouse on stilts and a sham castle in Somerset and a ghost village in Dorset.”

Entry costs £2 and includes tea or coffee and biscuits. The meeting is open to everyone including non-members.
