On Thursday 19 January, we are holding a meeting to look at the work of local architects' firm Lathams on masterplans for small towns. This follows the planning the firm carried out for the Meadows Edge and town centre areas of Belper several years ago. John Phipps, from Lathams will speak at the meeting, which starts at 7.30pm at Strutts, Derby Road, Belper. The meeting is for Civic Forum members only, but non-members are very welcome to join on the door.
