Studley Local History Group

Founded in 2001, we are a group of local people sharing an interest in the history of Studley. WHAT ARE OUR AIMS? • To encourage interest in local history. • Discover the comings and goings of everyday life in Studley, from early times to the present day. • Safeguarding of local history material. Creation of a digital Studley Archive. • Publish our findings so that the knowledge may be shared and enjoyed by others. HOW DO WE ACHIEVE THIS? Research archives & publications such as births, marriages, burial registers, voters lists, newspapers, wills, inventories, census returns; property documents, photographs, invoices; gravestones, memorial plaques; maps, reports from residents able to call upon their own and their forebears remembered histories.
