Today, we were proud to welcome the Lord-Lieutenant of Lancashire to Moorside House in Altham to unveil a new blue plaque in the borough. The blue plaque commemorates this historic house as being the former home of Lydia Becker, a pioneer of the suffrage movement and a great champion of women's rights. The Lord-Lieutenant was welcomed by the Groves family, who are the current custodians of this heritage property. The house is open this weekend as part of Heritage Open Days, unfortunately tickets have now sold out!
