STOKESLEY Local History Study Group has begun work on a project to help researchers learn about the town's past.
Twenty members have already become involved in searching archives from as far back as 1783 to extract valuable historical information on people, places and key dates.
However, it is proving to be a major task and the group is inviting anyone who is interested in getting involved to a meeting next Tuesday, at 7.30pm, in the town hall.
New members will be given training and taken on a tour of the County Archives in Northallerton.
