Review of Harleston by P.R. Skinner on April 16th, 2007
My thoughts on Harleston - very favourable as it was my old stamping ground in my youth around the 1940's - early 50's. However I think the museum should include an email address as I'd like to contact them via that medium. I'll be visiting U.K. in the next 12 months and have a few items they might like - a programme for a 'welcome home ' dinner in the Corn Hall for servicemen in 1919, a 1939 cinema programme, a Harleston cycling club badge which belonged to my Uncle Holly Gardner, who was a bit of a champion cyclist in his time, and a few other bits of ephemera.
