Historic Cottingham
Location: East Riding of Yorkshire

The aim of the project is to involve local volunteers in researching the local history of the village of Cottingham.

The group will publish a book containing an illustrated history of the village. Research will involve oral reminiscence work and volunteers will be trained in this skill. They will compile a collection of photographs documenting the history of the village. These will be collated on a databank and stored on a computer.

The group will then design a heritage trail around the village and prodce a leaflet guide for residents and visitors to follow. The project will enable volunteers to be trained in research techniques and methodology involved in researching local history and writing a book of the findings.
