Local author and historian Tony Lethbridge said: “St Thomas Library Local history open day last year was such an outstanding success we thought we would run it again but this time with an even more varied collection of photos, video, talks and memories."

Lee Rawlings, Supervisor at St Thomas Library said: "We loved hosting last year's event and it seems this year will be just as fascinating and fun. We would also like to encourage people to bring along a few photos from their past for our first ever Bring Your Own session!"

The event if free, and everyone is welcome to pop along anytime during the day.
