Borden Heritage Group
Borden Heritage Group was originally an idea born from a discussion of Borden Parish Council members and was established as an independent group in July 2010 to ensure that Borden’s history, its characters and events that have formed today's community are not forgotten and are available to all.
Our ongoing work includes encouraging the whole community to become involved, recording memories and interviews from our past and current residents, and creating an archive of historical documents and memorabilia. We welcome membership from supporters throughout the UK and beyond.
We are a voluntary group who are passionate about retaining the history of Borden Village.
