This year marks the 100th anniversary of the end of World War 1. The 11th day of the 11th month falls on a Sunday - Remembrance Sunday.

The Parish Council have generously allowed the museum to have the use of the Parish Centre at no cost, to mount an exhibition similar - but larger - than the one we staged in 2014.

As in 2014, we are appealing for villagers to come forward with artefacts, memories, items of interest and stories to share which can be incorporated into the exhibition. We will take great care of any treasured items which are loaned to the museum for the event.

It’s early days, but we need to start planning for this important date.

All enquiries and offers of help or loan of items etc. to: John Ridgwell, Email: John-R@ntlworld.com Tel: 01582 626055 Thank you.
