Local History Group

Perhaps you are a newcomer to the village and wonder how the village looked in the past.

The Local History group has produced 3 books on village history. Unfortunately the 1st two are out of print but "Further Reflections of Tarvin" is a photographic history covering the years 1937 -- 1992 and is still available from the Post Office at £5-50.
