Heritage Open Days in Berkshire and North Hampshire
Over the next two weeks the region's history is being showcased in a series of free events
Heritage Open Days is England's largest community led festival of history and culture, involving thousands of local volunteers and organisations.
Every year in September (8-17) it brings people together to celebrate their heritage, community and history. Stories are told, traditions explored, and histories brought to life.
