During the spring of 2009 we will be completely redesigning the web site and removing some content. You need to let us have your views - either on the forum or via the feedback page so we can build your ideas into the site where feasible. Thank you.

The Local Heritage Project for Henshaw and Bardon Mill is now underway with a full programme of events for this year - see what exciting events you could be involved with.

We have now built a Henshaw CofE First School website.

Jan 2008. We have started to add to the local genealogy and history page. If you have a story from the past or an older relative with knowledge of the village or its people you might like to contact us to contribute. It will make interesting reading. In particular we would be interested in stories from the past, even mundane every day stories about everyday hardships and life. We want to know what it was like for people living in Bardon Mill and Henshaw many years ago. The Cowan family start us off.

Henshaw Parish Council has a vacancy for a Parish Councillor - see details on the Council page.

The WI Programme for 2008/9 can now be found under Organisations and on their own dedicated page.

A totally new web site has been created or the new 1st Bardon Mill Rainbow group. You can access it from here or from any page via Rainbows in the menu to the left.
