Everything that put Lancashire on the map: its heroes, its villains, its battles, its achievements, its sportsmen and its entertainers. A proud and fascinating county has its trumpet blown by local author Dr. Malcolm Greenhalgh. The next in our popular series, It Happened in...
The Lancastrian name of Greenhalgh comes from the hamlet of that name between Kirkham and Poulton-le-Fylde (a de Greenhalgh was there in about 1270). Malcolm Greenhalgh was born in Bolton, and educated at Kirkham Grammar School and Lancaster University. After that he moved to Tarleton, working and lecturing on wildlife on the Ribble. He finally settled in Lowton, where he worked as a freelance writer, spending much time researching books about north-west England. His first book was Wildfowl of the Ribble Estuary (1975), and more recent ones include Flavours of Lancashire and The Ribble: River and Valley. He said: ‘I am proud to have the Queen as Duke of my County Palatine! Malcolm also wrote extensively on natural history and angling. He co-wrote, with Hugh Falkus The Salmon and Seatrout Fisher's Handbook. He attended international conferences on salmon and worked closely with many of the leading conservationists. He died on 24 October 2019.
