LET'S MAKE THE MOST OF OUR LOCAL HISTORY Members of the Langport and District History Society want to learn more about the history of our local area, and also to use our rich history to provide more information to attract visitors and to stimulate interest. We organise an annual programme of talks, but we are now actively seeking help in making the most of our history. As a first step the History Society is creating a digital collection of photographs and postcards of old Langport, Huish Episcopi, and surrounding villages. If anyone would like to share their old photographs or postcards with the History Society, please let Janet Seaton know at the following email address: janetseaton@fastmail.fm. We only need to borrow your items for a few days so that we can scan them to make electronic copies, then we will give you back the originals. When we can review what we've collected, including as much detail as possible on what they depict, we can decide how best to make them available to others. If you would like to get more involved in finding out about your local history and helping to publicise it, please let Janet know. Ideas and suggestions for projects and other activities would also be very welcome.
