To celebrate VE Day and the 75 years of peace it heralded we will be adding a page everyday to our Sea Mills & Coombe Dingle War Stories collection. You can get involved and comment to share your stories or get in touch with us. We would love to hear from you.
Please start here to read our war stories.
As we approach the 75th Anniversary of VE Day we were struck by the comparison between these two poster campaigns, one from the 1940’s one from today, both featuring members of our essential services asking us to stay home to save lives.
To mark the approach to VE Day on 8th May we will be publishing here some of Sea Mills and Coombe Dingle’s war stories. Come back each day and keep an eye on our social media to see what’s new.
