Ridgeway Voices

Ridgeway Voices - Oral History Project

We'd love to know what the Ridgeway area and its villages mean to people living in and around them. We are training volunteers in the art of interviews and provide recording equipment for use. Recordings will be transcribed and archived. Where the interviewee has given permission, we'll publish appropriate bits of transcript and sound snippets on this website and in exhibitions.
