Indoor meetings monthly on Wednesday during the winter months.

'Our monthly lunchtime talks are a great way to find out more about exhibitions. Talks are free, informal and last around 30 minutes with time for discussion afterwards. There is no need to book.'

Meets monthly, Saturday afternoons; no meetings in July and August. ALERT At Review, awaiting information on venue(s) for future meetings.

'Formed in 2011 following an archaeological investigation of Middleton’s historic parish church – St. Leonards ... Our monthly talks programme is held in our adoptive home of the Olde Boar’s Head on Long Street, Middleton. These talks are usually scheduled for the last Thursday of the month (we do not have one in December) and the talks start at 7.30pm. These talks are open to all, we ask for a small entrance fee of £3 for non-members.'

'A small, friendly amateur photographic club. Whether you are new to photography or an old hand, we will give you a warm welcome. The words fun, friends & photos fit us perfectly. We meet every Thursday night at 7.30 pm.'

'Meetings are held on most Thursdays throughout the year ... All meetings are at 7.15 pm for a 7.30 pm start unless otherwise stated.'

'Meetings are held on the second Monday of the month (except July & August) ... at 7.30 pm. To join, just simply turn up! All are Welcome!'

'Supporting the Trust are The Friends of Saddleworth Archaeological Trust, a group of some 70 members who meet on a monthly basis ... on Tuesday evenings. A programme of lectures covering a wide and interesting range of subjects is arranged and, as membership grows, it is hoped to be able to organise both site and museum visits.' However the Website of the Trust itself no longer seems accessible and:'in 2012 the Friends Saddleworth Archaeological Trust (FoSAT) merged with the Friends of Castleshaw Roman Forts' - so I have cited the latter's Website instead.
