Joining Up Our Heritage project
After the huge success of their first Tithe Map Digitisation and
Preservation
project, West Sussex Record Office have launched a
new two year project. This is thanks, once again, to the Heritage
Lottery Fund, together with extra funding from West Sussex Archives
Society.
The ‘Joining up our Heritage’ Project will focus on enabling
small local archives and museums, particularly those that are
volunteer and community-led, to make their records, objects and
information more accessible to the public. This information will be
added to the Tithe Maps database and eventually become available to
look at in the Record Office and County Libraries, or on a Tithe
Map CD.
If you have an interest in local history and would like to
volunteer to be part of the project, or if you have archive
material that you feel would be of value to our database
collection, please contact the Record Office on or email records.office@westsussex.gov.uk
