  • New Love for Milborne's Old Stag
    R e p o r t e80p where r sold News and Views from around the area Volume 10 Issue 2 February 2018 www.milbornestandrew.org.uk/reporter facebook.com/MilborneReporter New love for Milborne’s old stag See page 3 A slow start to the New Year at Village History Group A very few people managed to make the meeting in January, those who did thought that many, who regularly come, could still be on holiday or unwell. We hope for more people next meeting. At this meeting Linda shared files of information that she has discovered by researching various websites. She has census returns and information from other sources (including the Reporter) which will inform our collation of information. She has been researching books written about other villages which may inform how we structure a book should we choose that route. Linda has also discovered an interesting website which shows photos of old Fordington; www.millstreethousingsociety.co.uk. Could this inspire us to create a website? We also discussed joining the Dorset History Network again but concluded that as no members appear to have accessed it, we would not do so. The History Group asks those who come to pay a small subscription; there is now a healthy sum which we could use to pay for speakers. If anyone has any good ideas about subjects or presenters please let me know. The next meeting is 14th February at 7.30pm in The Royal Oak. Hopefully members who volunteered to write up information about specific buildings will be able to share these with the group.
