The Syntan Barge Beverley
Yesterday a small group of children, who have featured in Swinemoor News, paid a visit to some of the volunteers of the Beverley Barge Preservation Society.
The children interviewed the volunteers, finding out lots of information about the history of the Syntan Barge and Beverley Beck.
We would like to thank the volunteers for giving up their time to be interviewed.
You can visit the Beverley Barge Preservation Society own website to find out more information about what they do at:
