Free workshops
Bristol Archives
B Bond Warehouse, Smeaton Rd, Bristol BS1 6XN
Sat 2nd February 1.30pm (FULL)
Wed 6th February 1.30pm (FULL)
(both identical 2 hour workshops)
We have arranged free workshops with Bristol Archives to show us how we can find out about our homes and the people that lived in them when they were new. A lot of our homes in Sea Mills were built in the 1920’s and would have housed returning veterans of WW1, however some houses were later, and a few have been around a lot longer. Come and find out when your home was built and start to find out who lived there. We will also be looking at public buildings and the history of the estate. We’ll be looking mainly at houses in Sea Mills Coombe Dingle, but if you don’t live in the immediate area you could still come and help as there will be lots to do.
The information we gather will form part of a heritage trail and our mini-museum which opens in the old red phone box on Sea Mills Square in June 2019.

Saturday the 2nd, I would like to take part and attend the archives office with you please.
Hi Ross,
Unfortunately the workshop on the 2nd February is full as it’s been very popular.
There are still space on the Wednesday 6th session for those that are not working that day.
It will also be possible to join the project at a later date as there will be community sessions at Sea Mills Library at different times to hopefully suit all. I highly recommend that people add themselves to our mailing list (under the social media / contact us tab) to be kept informed.
