It was a FREE for all event, marking the WW1 centenary. The event took place in Bryngarw House on Sunday, 11 May, 10.30am - 2pm.
Visitors to Bryngarw House and Country Park stepped back 100 years for a fascinating glimpse into life during the First World War at a free ‘This is YOUR Heritage’ event on Sunday 11 May between 10:30am and 2pm.
The event was organised by Bridgend County Borough Council’s Rural Development Programme ‘reach’, in partnership with the Heritage Lottery Fund and the Digital Bridgend Project.
The day featured guest speakers discussing topics such as the role of women during the First World War, Heritage Lottery Funding and Bridgend County Borough Council’s exciting Digital Bridgend project, which will use modern technology to let people download content such as videos and audio guides via their smartphones and tablets when they are visiting some of the county borough’s most historic sites.
Local historical and heritage groups (including our Hut 9 Preservation Group) displayed their latest projects and exhibitions at the event which will delve into Bridgend County Borough’s past. There was plenty of local historical information that has been collated by voluntary groups from Bridgend County Borough’s valleys, villages, towns and coast.
