Book sale at The Hive – 19th December
- 15th December 2014
On 19th December, between 1pm and 4pm, Worcestershire Archive and Archaeology Service are offering those interested in the history of the County the opportunity to purchase stock that is no longer part of the local studies and archaeology reference collection. We are keen that our customers and local people have the opportunity to purchase items, and so are holding a book sale in The Studio at The Hive.

Monies raised from the sale will be fed directly back to Worcestershire Archive and Archaeology Service, so those buying books will be helping to support us and protect Worcestershire’s heritage. The income will:
