Bradwell After Seth
Location: Derbyshire

In 1912 Seth Evans published a book called "Bradwell Ancient and Modern". A reprint of the book last year quickly sold out and raised interest in the village's history. The project aims to involve local people in producing a book on the history of Bradwell over the last 100 years carrying on from Seth's book.

There will also be an oral record in the current local idiom including local poems and carols and an archive of copies of photographs and documents. A CD will be produced for educational purposes and details of the project will be included on the village website.
