What areas of local history interest you?  Tick the upper box to show your interest in the subject and the  lower box if you are willing to do some research in that area

1.  Oral history – we still have many local residents, whose memories stretch back into the last century or earlier.  Recording them – and transcribing to paper – will provide a fascinating collection

 

2.  Estates & Buildings – few of our large estates and old buildings have been thoroughly studied, either for their historical development or their construction

 

 

 

3.  Family history – many local families have lived in Wadhurst for generations; others have moved away but are still interested in their roots

 

4.  Industry and agriculture – some work has been done on the Wealden iron industry but more could be explored; agriculture too has change dramatically over time

 

 

 

5.  Local Development – the growth of Wadhurst and the change of use of its buildings – commercial, domestic and religious

 

6. Other areas of interest
