Have you ever wondered who lived in your house?

1909 Holt's estate

Whether you are interested in knowing more about your own house or are simply interested in knowing more about your ancestors who lived in Antrobus, the newly updated Records page on the website is just the place to dive into. On the way you might want to stop off and look at the Places Index to see if the history of your house has been researched. Or you may want to go via the Family History page  – new transcribed wills and links to external websites have been added.

As always, there is far more available than on the website, so please email clare.olver@gmail.com with feedback, requests and your discoveries. All of these are invaluable, and always try to incorporate your suggestions.

I have been interested in researching and writing about local history for the past 30 years. Over the years I amassed a collection of documents, stories and photographs about Stretton but as there wasn't a dedicated website on which to share this research - so I thought I'd create it. One thing led to another and before I knew it, Antrobus and Whitley followed a couple of years later.
