Every week we feature one of the projects forming part of the Heritage Lottery Fund/NYA Young Roots Project. This week we feature:
COMMUNITY MAPPING Lead Agency: Welcome to our future Partners: Hereford Cathedral, Herefordshire Youth Service, County Record Office, South Wye Youth Forum
PROJECT
Young people from Hinton Youth Centre in the South Wye district will be researching the history of their city through the evidence of old maps, including the world famous Mappa Mundi at the Cathedral. The project will focus on the city's historical relationship with Wales as a border city, its Civil War heritage and its role as a munitions site in World Wars One and Two.
