Myddle, Broughton and Harmer Hill Parish History Society
have recently started a local history society covering the Parish of Myddle and Broughton, which includes Harmer Hill, Yorton, other small villages and hamlets, and Sleap airfield. Currently several members of the parish communities are researching their local history and their work will be added to these pages in the near future.
This is very much a 'work in progress', so if you would like to share your own local history knowledge with us, or if you see anything which you believe to be inaccurate on the history website pages, please do let us know. You can contact us by email to margaretm@myddle.net
Our next meeting
This will be held on Saturday 31 July, from 2.30 to 5.00 in Myddle Village Hall. We would like to start an online collection of old photographs of the parish, so this will be a 'drop-in' session when we hope that villagers will bring old photographs to be scanned, and tell us the stories that go with them. More details will be available nearer the time on this website, and in the Myddle Messenger.
Previous meetings
Our first meeting was held on Wednesday 21 April 2010 in Myddle Village Hall. Colin Ruck presented a talk entitled 'A Brief History of Myddle - the story so far', to an enthusiastic audience from across the parish. You can download a copy of the slide show by clicking on the link. (14MB pdf file)
