Documents from the Archives

Blisworth Heritage Society has a vast archive of local material, much of it collected by George Freeston, but also many items donated by other people associated with the Village. Some of these items are on display in the cabinet in the Church

To illustrate the scope of the collection, Committee Members each chose a topic of interest to them and gave a short presentation at one of our monthly meetings. Topics included:

Listed Buildings The Grafton Sale The Telephone Ironstone Mining Pond Bank Gallery The Mill WWII Evacuees The school…...and so on

Now come and see for yourself whenever the Church is open ask any Committee Member if there is something particular you would like to see. Open afternoons to meet demand throughout the Summer months, once restrictions are relaxed

If you have any photos or documents relating to the village and are prepared to let us have copies, please contact us.
