In 2005 we launched our
Living Memories project with the aim
of gathering as many old photographs of the two villages as
possible.
We have
over 1000 historic pictures of Blackawton, Strete and the
surrounding area in our database, together with some old film
material, as well as recorded interviews with a number of
villagers.
We hope to continue
building our database of old images. So, if you have old pictures
or film of Blackawton or Strete do make a call to our Living
Memories Village Coordinator – Val Phillips in Strete (01803 770693), or send an
email to
historybash@hotmail.co.uk Copying pictures for the
database is so simple, and if the originals are a bit faded or
damaged, we can actually make them look better – and provide you the
owner with new prints. If you are worried about letting your
precious old images leave the house, we can come to you.
