WLHS at Milton Fete

The WLHS made its presence known at the Milton Fete this July 12th. We had two boards of photographs on display, mostly focussing on Milton subjects, plus other “albums” of historic photos of Milton. We also had our stock of Wychwoods History Journals and other publications available for purchase.

Our location on the Green was a good one, and, despite the relentless sun and heat, we had a good number of visitors to the stand; both browsers and those with questions. We had some interesting conversations. For example, several newcomers to Milton asked about the history of their recently acquired houses. It was pleasing to be able to show historic photos of some of them on our website.
