‘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.
