\nAt the Old Abbey Buildings, this evening, local historians and dignitaries gathered to celebrate the first 100 Entries of A<\/b>bingdon P<\/b>eople and B<\/b>uildings on the town history portal.<\/p>\n

The Mayor of Abingdon-on-Thames, Helen Pighills, cut the cake, and Manfred Brod told us how the project had been initiated,  researched and edited by members of Abingdon Area Archaeological and Historical Society.

\nMany people helped in the project. Pictured are Michael Harrison, who takes a lot of the photographs, and Ruth Weinberg who cooked the ABP 100 cake.<\/p>\n

Ruth will also be doing a talk for Heritage Open Days at St Nicolas Church ‘Victorian Abingdon in pictures<\/b>‘  on Thursday 10th September at 12:30.<\/p>\n

If you can’t make that then there is another talk  ‘Albert Park – The Development of a Victorian Suburb<\/b>‘ by Jackie Smith on  Friday 11th September at 19:30. Both are free as are all Heritage Open Days events.

\nAll articles are peer reviewed before they are published on the web – to ensure they are well researched, and read well. The first 100 articles contain Historic Buildings from Abbey Gateway to 48 West St Helen Street, and Abingdon People from The Ackling Family to William Thomas Garrett Woodforde.<\/p>\n
