THE NEXT talk in the Droitwich History and Archaeology Society’s programme will centre on the Willow Court Restoration Project.
The presentation will be given by Tim Cornah at 7.30pm on Wednesday, January 7, in the John Corbett Room of Droitwich Spa Community Hall, Heritage Way.
It will focus on the historical farmhouse at Westlands, which for many years lay derelict and unloved, but desperately in need of saving.
Then came the Willow Court Restoration Project and the whole site was shrouded in scaffolding before the recent grand reveal.
Not only was the building brought back into use, but memories of the building were collected and an archaeological survey was undertaken to take the story right back to the beginning with documents from 1456 and evidence of a building from the late 16th century.
Tim, the guest speaker, is the archaeologist who worked on the site and he will provide an in-depth story about the site, the project, and what it means for the people of Droitwich Spa.
Everyone is welcome. Admission is £3 for members and £5 for friends and visitors.
