Environmental material at Gloucestershire Archives is vast and wide ranging .... from the Court of Sewers and the Verderers of the Forest of Dean to more personal material such as farmers’ diaries, naturalists’ journals and intriguing accounts of events which rocked the countryside. Marion Hill is Learning & Outreach Officer for the Green Pledge Project (a major Heritage Lottery funded project at the Archives over the past 2 years) and she will also explain how access to these collections can be used to inspire engagement with environmental issues – one of the most important topics of the current day.
