Open Day – 18th October 2025

Our Open Day at the Senior Citizens Centre on Broadlane Lane, was a great success. We had loads of visitors coming though the doors to see our exhibition. There was over hundred photos on display with hundreds more in our books for visitors to look through. As well as maps and a plan of Great Wyrley cemetery. We had one visitor that came looking for a passed relative who was supposedly been buried in the cemetery, but had been having problems finding them. Our graveyard map gave a full listing of all the people buried there and he was able to locate his relative’s location on the map. The display of photos and artefacts was well received by everyone, it showed calculation instruments that was used to calculate planning of the mines.
