The H&F Historic Buildings Group has arranged a guided visit to the Borough Archives and Local History Centre.
Come and see some of the fascinating things in the Archives, from parish and vestry records, architectural drawings and estate documents to books, paintings and photographs, old and new. There are lovely objects too, such as books from the Kelmscott and Doves Presses, as well as Fulham Pottery ware.
Jane Kimber the Borough Archivist will talk about her work, the value of archives to the community and the many different areas for potential research.
If there is anything you would particularly like to know about in advance, please let us know when you book.
The visit is open to all!
