Welcome

Loughborough History and Heritage Network is a non-profit making website run by Loughborough-based writer Alison Mott with contributions from local heritage groups and members of the public.

Established in its original form in December 2014, the website’s purpose is to preserve and share the history of the Charnwood area of Leicestershire and to strengthen a sense of pride and community in its diverse population.

We welcome stories, photos and memories of the area, its buildings and organisations, and the people who have moved here, lived here and worked here – whether in the recent past or hundreds of years ago.

For help with a historical enquiry email Loughborough Library Local Studies Volunteers at lllsv@gmx.co.uk.

Email lboro.history.heritage@gmail.com to send us your own stories, memories and research for publishing on the website.
