Peasmarsh village voice

There was a constant stream of visitors to the Archive Exhibition at the Memorial hall last Sunday, as always lots to see and discover about the history of our village. Many interesting conversations were sparked by looking at the old photographs and memorabilia, with people remembering things that they didn’t know they knew! Thank you to everyone who came along, and of course to those whose hard work made it possible.
