Colin Needham, from the society, said: 'The event is a one day exhibition of our collection and a chance for current and former village residents to participate once again in a Memories Day adding yet more stories and pictures to the archive.' Entry is free and there will be refreshments and homemade cakes.
The society achieves has regular meetings, lectures, walks and social events. Members have also undertaken an archaeological study of the village based on field walking.
