FULL STEAM AHEAD FOR FREDS HOUSE

THE home of celebrity steeplejack Fred Dibnah is be preserved in his memory as a heritage centre.

The new owners plan to restore Fred's Bolton workyard to its former glory.

There were fears the house and its historical contents could be lost forever.

But Leon Powsney and his wife Jan want to restore every nut and bolt - then open it up to the public. They plan to offer tours of the site and monthly talks with Fred's wife Sheila.

Here at STEAM4FUN, We all wish Leon and Jan all the best with the plans for the centre.
