Preserving Our Heritage
The Tameside Local History Forum was established
in January 2000 to increase public awareness and use of all the
elements of local history throughout the Borough.
 |
We aim to promote
the study of archive and source material for social, business and
archaeological purposes, |
 |
To make sure that such material
is well preserved, collated and accessible to all, |
| |
We encourage
co-operation between related historical and civic societies and
statutory authorities and act as a point of contact for them, |
