VISITORS to the Linton and District History Society Millennium Exhibition enjoyed a 2000-year tour through country life.

More than 20 displays combining historic artefacts and photographs from the village's past and present were represented through work and leisure themes at the two-day event.

Individuals and organisations contributed to the exhibition, including Newent Camera Club, Linton Furnaces, Wobage Pottery and Linton Village Computer Group.

The history society's work was also on show, as was a 1968 copy of The Hereford Times.

This unique collection marked the opening of the newly-refurbished Linton Village Hall.
