Local History

This group have recently been researching Pocklington during the war years.  This work has culminated in the production of a book entitled: "Pocklington At War", which has recently been published.  It tells how the Second World War and the arrival of a Bomber Command airfield affected the people of this small market town.

The leaders of the group Jim and Margaret Ainscough, backed up the research carried out by the group with further research from original documentation.  The book is available from Simply Books in Pocklington at a cost of £5.00, proceeds will go to RAF charities.

Details of the Local History group's next project to follow.  For further details please contact Jim & Margaret Ainscough.
