- Worcestershire History Encyclopaedia - a new venture of Worcester Writers' Circle to provide access to information about the county's past, written by many people in all its local communities. The web site will include specially written text, pictures from a variety of sources, already published material for which copyright has been cleared and out of copyright items.
You can contribute short articles, such as a short description of a parish, village or locality, a report of an event you saw, heard about or read about, or a life of an interesting person who lived in Worcestershire. You can also contribute longer articles which have already been published, as photocopy or computer disc, pictures, photographs you have taken yourself,
permission to use any photographs in the libraries or record offices for which you own the rights, old family photographs which you own, and anything else you think will look good on the screen!
