Excellent event. Very informative. Thanks to Kev for the walk.
Lovely to get an in depth look of a very localised part of the community I've grown up in. Wonderful also to listen to the memories of those who have lived here even longer than me!
Would love to see some more from 70's and 80's. Lovely exhibition
Lovely display. Met an amazing lady with a great story to tell of her Auntie in Preston Street who stuffed money in her mattress!
Very nice exhibition! Nicely presented. Well done.
Great tour. Always lovely to find out new Exeter history.
Very relaxed atmosphere. Good to meet like-minded people.
Interesting event. Great local stories and relaxed atmosphere in a lovely setting. Missed the walk but will do our own with your info!
Thank you. Great introduction. Will follow up on line.
The exhibition at the White Hart was a great success - interesting and well laid out - a few ladies were happily surprised to recognise their younger selves and school friends in the photos. The Sacred Heart photos and text made a really good contribution and I thought the venue was just the right size - of course the sunshine was ideal!
