Herefordshire
Status: Active, 1 volume published
One volume was published in 1908, which is still available to purchase. The Herefordshire VCH Trust was formed in 1998 to revive the project in the county and was successful in including Herefordshire in the Heritage Lottery Fund’s ‘England’s Past for Everyone’ project. The four year project which was led by Dr Sylvia Pinches, produced two paperback volumes on the town of Ledbury, Ledbury: A Market Town and its Tudor Heritage and Ledbury: Parish and People Before the Reformation
Following the successful conclusion of the EPE project, work has now begun on a parish history of neighbouring Eastnor.
