Remembering a great Cornishman

The new year starts on a sad note with the news that Paddy Bradley has died.
Paddy, the historian who helped us so much with our World War One research, was Cornish through and through and seemed to know everything there was to know about Redruth where he was born and lived all his life.
He was also, in his time, a rugby legend - playing for his beloved Redruth and Cornwall.
He will be greatly missed.
His collection of postcards can be seen on this link.
RIP Paddy. It was such a pleasure to know you and work with you. 

Cornwall Studies Library, Redruth: planning for 2015 exhibition

At Cornwall Studies Library, Redruth, making plans for the launch of the Heart of Conflict exhibition at half term (February) 2015.
On display: artefacts gathered by local groups, with their background. Plus sound recordings created by local youth groups, including Camborne Guides.
At the moment we're making plans for visits and training, and eying up the space.
