Welcome
to our 2007 Newsletter!

I
like to think of our site as being like a fine wine - with age it slowly
matures and gets better and better! With the much appreciated donation
of material and ides from Parishioners & non-Villagers I have been
able to turn the site into both a modern resource of current information/news
and also a veritable treasure trove of historical content on the village.
The
pace of site growth has now understandably slowed down as it has matured.
Iam always here to receive new material/ideas for the site, but alongside
that, Iam also extremely happy that what we have here is a site that
can really help people to feel part of the Village, whether they be
in Bere Regis, Boston or Bondi Beach!
A few highlights from 2007 -
In the largest project in the Websites history we are gradually putting
all the available scanned copies of Villagers Wills from 1559 - 1853
into Galleries within our History Section. Click here
to see our progress so far.
We
have added historical Ordnance Survey Maps of the Village from 1887
& 1902
We
have added over 50 new Photographs to the Village Photograph Galleries
covering village buildings and the countryside you can find around us
We
have added several new photographs to the Village Historical Photographs
Galleries
We
have ensured the village website is represented on far more global search
engines so more people can find out all about us
We
have updated the Village Organisations section to encompass the opening
times/contact details of all the new village clubs etc.
We
have upgraded the Web Hosting package for the Website, so we will be
well placed to expand the space on the site as new material/photographs/video
comes on board
I'd
like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your interest in
the site. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
