Hartington History Group

The History Group evolved out of a village exhibition held in 2008, ‘Hartington Through the Ages’, which generated considerable community interest and unearthed a wealth of artefacts, photographs, documents and memorabilia.

• Oral Memory Events.
• Adding to, recording and storage of the now extensive materials collection begun in 2008.
• Researching the background to those named on Hartington’s War Memorial.
• Researching the history of the Village School for its 150th anniversary 2016.
• Preparation of publications, based on records and memories of past and present residents.
• ‘Who Lived in Our House?’ – a continuing project which will research the residential history of particular Hartington properties.
• Digital Archiving of history group records.
