A HISTORY group is branching out with their latest guest speaker.
Tree Hunter Rob McBride will join the March 11 meeting of the Broughton District History Group.
Rob has appeared with several television and media personalities, including presenters of the popular BBC programme Country File.
He is a passionate campaigner for the ancient trees of the UK and Europe and has travelled widely across several countries.

When visiting Broughton, the subject of his talk will be The Great Trees of Offa's Dyke. He will take the group on a 13-year adventure trek through the incredible border country between Wales and England, a project "not just trees but much more".
Everyone is welcome to attend meetings, which are held on the second Monday of every month at the Memorial Centre, Brynteg, between 10am-noon.
Talks later this year included Wrexham’s Year of Wonder on April 8 and The Ladies of Llangollen on May 13.
