Open Evening a Grand Success!

On Thursday 29th October,we welcomed more than 100 invited guests to the Devon Rural Archive. There was a fine atmosphere and it was really exciting for us to see the DRA so busy.

Guests included representatives from South Hams AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty), The Farming and Wildlife Advisory Group (FWAG), The Dartmoor Society and The University of Plymouth. Also members of a number of local history and archaeological societies who enjoyed browsing our resources and making contact with their neighbouring societies and like minded researchers of history, archaeology and genealogy.

Our Autumn programme continues with a talk by local archaeologist and broadcaster Mr Win Scutt. Please email amy@dra.uk.net for tickets.
