Past Events

Normanby Local History Group’s
    Annual Exhibition
       - Saturday 13th July 2024

  Our Normanby Local History Group’s Annual Exhibition took place on Saturday in Normanby Methodist Church with preparations of displays and stalls taking place on the day before.
  Despite the adverse weather our exhibition proved to be very successful and the displays generated much discussion between visitors and members.
  Harry Greenmon did a roaring trade selling our group’s Publications  as well as our postcards.
  The refreshment team and cake stall were kept busy!
  Many thanks to all those who generously donated food, drink and prizes for the tombola.

  The day was deemed a great success that wouldn’t have been possible without all those who researched, donated, organised or helped in any way -
  and especially the residents of Normanby & beyond
who really did want to find out more about Normanby’s past !
  Thanks to you all !
