Rodbourne Community History Group

Members of the Rodbourne Community History Group gathered together last weekend to celebrate the achievements of the group across more than 20 years.

What began as the Rodbourne Living History Project in 2003, an initiative of the Outreach Department of English Heritage here in Swindon, evolved into a vibrant group giving presentations, talks and tours about their neck of the woods.

But the time had come to say a fond farewell – although the popular ‘Factory Tours’ of the Outlet Village will continue later in 2025.

The archive will in due course transfer to the Local Studies, Swindon Central Library, flickr website but until then you can still view photographs on the Rodbourne Community History Group’s website.

Here are some photographs from Saturday’s event.
