A Postcard from Balsall Common - a local and community history project

05 Jun 2025 to 30 Jun 2025Balsall Common
Event
This June, Balsall Common library will be inviting our community to take a trip down memory lane and remember days gone by in the village with a local history exhibition called A Postcard from Balsall Common. Staff staged similar exhibitions in 2020 and 2024 and are now hoping to once again encourage residents to share their memories by filling in a postcard in the library to be pegged on a special ‘reminiscence washing line’. The library is especially keen to hear from anyone who has any old photographs, newspaper articles and other items of interest concerning the village and its history. Any information about shops and businesses that are no longer with us, or local individuals of note would also be gratefully received. As well as sharing newly collected memories and local history with the community, the library will also be preserving them for posterity by adding copies to the Solihull Heritage & Local Studies Service, at The Core in Solihull town centre. To talk to the library about sharing photographs, objects or memories, or for further information, please contact Keri on 01676 523804 or by email at balsallcommonlibrary@solihull.gov.uk
