Bolton Local History

Bolton and Fangfoss are two small villages located in rural East Yorkshire. The Local History Group meets at 7:30pm on the last Monday of each month in Bolton Chapel. All are most welcome to join us for our meetings. (Click here for the current programme)

This site provides access to blogs, information, photographs and other resources gathered by the members of the group in the course of their research. We have begun to write some short articles on local history topics.

Please feel free to browse and contribute to this site. In particular have a look at the photos, we are gradually putting names to faces and places - but we need all the help we can get.  We have recently launched a short 'local history trail' linking Fangfoss, Spittal and Bolton. Copies are available from group members.
