Worcestershire History Centre to move

Thanks to Beryl Evans of the Federation of Family History Societies (www.ffhs.org.uk) and Vicky Fletcher of Worcestershire Record Office (www.worcestershire.gov.uk/cms/records.aspx) for the following:

"In January Worcestershire Record Office combined with Worcestershire Historic Environment and Archaeology Service to become a new joint service – Worcestershire Archive and Archaeology Service. We are moving into a new building – The Hive – which will enable us to provide a wider range of resources to our users as a new joined-up service. The Hive will open to the public in July 2012. This will be a very exciting move for us, as it means Worcestershire's archive resources will be held together in one building for the first time.

"Please be aware that Worcestershire History Centre, at Trinity Street, Worcester, will be closing to the public on Saturday 21st April 2012 in order to prepare for this move. After 21st April, our contact number of 01905 765922 will carry over to The Hive, so please do continue to contact us on this number and pass it on to the general public. The address of The Hive is as follows: The Hive, Sawmill Walk, The Butts, Worcester, WR1 3PB"
