SALTASH CHRONICLES

You may have noticed a new entry on the menu on the left of this page: SALTASH CHRONICLES. This takes you to a new page where you can download the full story of Andrew Tritton's Saltash Chronicles embroidery project, which is available to view in Saltash Guildhall. Please take a read and marvel at the huge amount of work and time put in to chronicling the history of Saltash in needle and thread by Andrew and lots of volunteers. When you are in town, please take some time to go and see the actual embroidery when the Guildhall is open.

EXCITING NEWS!

With the assistance of a substantial legacy from our former president Colin Squires, Saltash Heritage are delighted to announce that we are acquiring the former Hearing Centre at 54 Fore Street, Saltash, to become our museum and local history centre. Situated in the middle of the main street, with considerably more space than we currently have, this building will form a much more user-friendly hub for our operations. There is obviously much work to be done to make the building suitable, and safely transfer all the documents, photographs and artefacts from the current collection, as well as the administration facilities, and this will take a considerable time. This year's current exhibition, "Codes, Secrets and Communication", will be extended and will remain open throughout 2026 at 17 Lower Fore Street. Watch this space for development updates...
