Tuesday the 19th August saw the launch of ‘The upper Culm Valley before, during and after The Great War’.
Over 75 people were in attendance and enjoyed some short words form Michael Cooper, Phil Norrey, Chief Executive of Devon County Council, and Lt Col Tim Courtenay RM.
During the launch almost 140 copies of the book were sold. Copies still remain and can be purchased by emailing info@blackdownarchives.org.uk.
The activities continue on in to this weekend where we will have three exhibitions taking place.
- Friday night, 22nd August, there is an exhibition running from 7pm until 9pm in Culmstock Village Hall.
- Saturday, 23rd August, from 2pm until 5pm there will be dramatic readings of some of the stories from the book which will be filmed
- Sunday, 24th August, sees the exhibition visiting Clayhidon and will be in St Andrews Church.
We are grateful for the support of the three parish councils, the Heritage Lottery and the AONB SDF for their support.
