Harringworth History Event Harringworth Village Hall Gretton Road Harringworth

Harringworth History Event

Saturday, June 10th

Harringworth archivist and historian Sarah Chambers has organised this special two-day event with an extensive exhibition of the Harringworth Archive staged in the Village Hall.

In addition, with limited spaces, there will be a 'Walk and Talk' around Harringworth's fascinating hidden history; illustrating the lives of the villagers from Anglo-Saxon times, through the middle ages to the modern day.

The walk takes you through the dawn of early Christianity, the evolving trades such as weaving, milling and agriculture, with the impact on the landscape, to the Lords of the Manor, also stopping to discuss some interesting archaeological features along the way.

Tickets cost £8 and also include entry to the exhibition and refreshments. The Walk & Talk will last around 90 minutes and on Friday starts at 7pm and on Saturday 2pm.
