You are invited to join the Eastcombe & Bismore Local History Group at Eastcombe Village Hall on Saturday 11th May, 2-4pm, for an afternoon of local history.
The group, which was created during lockdown, has existed until now primarily on Facebook, although the staging of the 2022 Jubilee exhibition at Eastcombe Primary School proved a successful foray into the real world.
It is hoped that the afternoon of 11th May will be the first of many occasions offering the chance to chat (face to face!) with others interested in the history of Eastcombe & Bismore, to see again some of the material from the 2022 local history exhibition, & also to bring along any photos or items that you might have & which you’re happy to share (there is no obligation to bring anything & everyone is welcome).
Refreshments will be available. ALL WELCOME!
