The display included a slideshow of photographs and also a number of museum artefacts.
The exhibition was also made possible thanks to the work of Heritage Service volunteer
Holly Medland. She spent days collecting images from the County Record Office, Museum
Service, Local Studies Collection and Archaeology Unit and also worked with local heritage
groups.
