Catherington Now and Then

An Exhibition of Old Photographs of Catherington and Surrounding Villages

In Catherington Church Hall on 10:00 to 16:00 Sunday 26th and Bank Holiday Monday 27th August, Sara Schillemore will be holding her regular exhibition of old photographs from the villages of Catherington, Lovedean, Horndean, Clanfield and Blendworth.

They show the villages as they were together with the buildings, businesses and people that lived there and their way of life.

She has lots of new photographs this year.

There will also be Church records from the area dating back to the 1500s that you can search through to find births, baptisms, marriages and deaths of members of your family. Please bring

a pencil if you need to copy anything as no ink is allowed anywhere near these priceless books.

It is always a well supported and fun event that people travel from all over the place to visit and reminisce about the way things were and to try to find pictures of themselves or family members.

There is a small charge of £2 to enter and proceeds support the fabric of All Saints Church, Catherington. Tea and coffee will also be available.
