Hi everyone,
Here is the second Local History article, and it poses a very interesting conundrum. If you can work out why there is a churchyard 3/4 of a mile from the church, do please let us know.
Many thanks to those who have already sent in contributions but I am looking forward to more articles from our 25 History Keepers - just a page, perhaps with a couple of pictures.
LOCAL HISTORY BLOG 2 - `Is there anybody there?`
A group of Local History Keepers have been brought together to cover many different aspects of local life, past and present - after all, the present becomes history. We hope to send out short pieces regularly about history in the area - that is Ruyton and the XI Towns, Baschurch, Weston Lullingfields and the Nesses.
As well as the History Keepers, anyone is very welcome to send in a piece, about A4 size, perhaps with a couple of images, as a PDF. Chose any subject which is dear to you, such as, your family history, the history of your house, your impressions of the village/area when you first came here, memories of attending a local school, growing up locally - 60, 40. 20, 10 years ago, it`s all history.
These articles will then be stored on
http://rxithistory.blogspot.co.uk
and can also be accessed from the website www.ruytonxitowns.org.uk
You send me your article and I will send out one of these contributions, every 2, 3 or 4 weeks, depending on how the articles come in. The subject will always be headed
