‘REMEMBERING SOMERDALE’
The
Society will be staging an exhibition at The Fear Hall on Saturday March 20th
and Sunday March 21st, tracing
the history of the Fry/Cadbury factory at Somerdale over a period of more than
80 years since it was first established in the 1920s.
The
exhibition will be open on both days from 10.00am to 4.00pm, and admission is
free.
If
anyone has any old photographs or reminiscences of working at Somerdale,
especially during the 1950s, the committee would be pleased to hear from you.
