Fred Dibnah’s Aladdin’s Cave Is Open
FRED Dibnah is now a museum. The Bolton News puts the opening of Fred Dibnah in understated tones. You can’t help but think that Dibnah, one of the top half dozen TV steeplejacks, would have approved:
THEY travelled from as far as Sutton Coldfield and Loughborough to look around Fred Dibnah’s “Aladdin’s cave” of a work yard.

A flat cap adorns the coffin of Bolton Steeplejack Fred Dibnah as it is carried to the cemetary on the back of a traction engine, in Bolton. The colourful and eccentric television personality died aged 66 on November 6 after a three-year battle with cancer. Dibnah's coffin will follow his newly-restored steam engine on a Victorian trailer before he is laid to rest at Tonge Cemetery.
