Brook Village
History
Approximately 1,000 people attended
the 9 days of exhibition and the 2 days of
heritage events at the Seely Hall, Brook,
in August. The card and paper displays
are now permanent posters which the
village can store to use in the future. To
add to the displays, the Hall was full of
tools, archaeological finds and artefacts
borrowed from local people, the farms
and the smithy as well as Calbourne Mill
and Blackgang Chine. There is a DVD of
the 2011 exhibition and events available
priced £5.00.
Following on from the success of ‘Brook
A Village History’, is ‘Village Memories’
A, 200 page paperback collection of the
full versions of the memories recorded
over the length of the Brook Village
History project. To order advance copies
