UPDATE

 

Our big annual local history exhibition this year will be on Saturday 28 th September 2013.

These events are always popular: providing opportunities for visitors from across the country (and overseas) to mingle with residents and parishioners.

A great chance to learn more about family histories and how the parish looked in years gone by...

See our "What's New" pages for an update on recent events.

Interest in the parish of Buriton remains as high as ever - we continue to receive new information, via this site, from all around the world

We're always looking for more information - and old pictures of the parish

WE NEED YOUR HELP

It is now over ten years since the Buriton Heritage Bank was launched – and much has been achieved in that time: nine lavishly illustrated books, regular exhibitions & open days and over 2,800 old photos of local people and places that might otherwise have been lost for all time.

 

We are planning to publish more material in another local history book within the next couple of years.

 

But, before we finalise our plans for our next publication, CAN YOU HELP?

 

We are always looking for more photographs and more information about life in the parish in years gone by.

 

If you know of anybody who might have any information – or anybody who might be able to help in any way – please let us know.

 

Flick through your photo albums, check out your cupboards, attack your attics and remind your relatives… Yesterday's local news is tomorrow's local history …

 

We look forward to hearing from you …

The Buriton Heritage Bank achieved a major milestone in autumn 2003 with the publication of

NINE SPECIAL PUBLICATIONS ABOUT THE PARISH.

All the booklets are crammed with fascinating information and lots of pictures - including hundreds of old photographs collected during the course of the project.
