Opening of Heritage Centre

On Sunday 17 June, North Walsham’s Heritage Centre in Vicarage Street, was formally opened by Rev Paul Cubitt. The opening was attended by supporters, residents, Town and District Councillors.

It had been a very, very long journey to find a home for an exhibition to promote the fascinating history of our town, explained Bob Wright, Chair of the Heritage Group that has created it. He said that this marked the end of a four-decade search, begun long ago by the Historical Society and finally achieved over the last four years by the Heritage Group, itself an off-shoot of Regenerate North Walsham CIC.

The group are most grateful to the Town Council for helping to provide a home for the exhibition. Fitting this out has been made possible by grants. From North Norfolk District Council’s Big Society Fund, and from the EU, via Wensum and Coast Local Action Group under the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development.

The exhibition inside is in its early days, but aims to explain and display the town’s key historical events and businesses. It will grow just as quickly as the group are able to track down interesting items from North Walsham’s past. Bob Wright stressed that although the Heritage Group has set up the exhibition, it belongs to the community, and that there are four ways in which he hoped everyone in town will support it.

• If you have, or know of, any historically interesting items, then the group would love to hear about them • The Heritage Centre and the Information Centre share the ˜Mi North Walsham’ building and are run by volunteers. If you would be interested in joining the team, then please do contact us. Continued on page 4...
