MORE than 150 members of the same North Yorkshire family will gather later this month.

The Metcalfe family can trace its history back to the 15th Century when members fought alongside Henry V at Agincourt.

The family, which is from Wensleydale, will gather on Saturday, September 24, at Dales Countryside Museum, in Hawes.

Next day, up to 200 will pose for a family photograph in West Burton, near Leyburn.

The gathering is being organised to celebrate the Metcalfe Society's 25th birthday, which was formed to help Metcalfes keep in touch and find out more about their family history.

Anyone interested in taking part is asked to contact Lesley Longworth on (01482) 342516.
