COULD anyone help Crediton History Society moving our collection out of Downes into the new Town Council attic - the Penthouse as I'm calling it!

We are so grateful to Crediton Town Council for making this accommodation available and work on extricating ourselves from Downes is progressing well.

However, with only a bit over a month to go till our licence ends on September 30, we have a few major difficulties.

We have some larger and quite heavy objects (like the Moore's Garage hanging clock) and many items of office furniture, shelving and storage boxes to move up two flights of stairs into the Penthouse overlooking the town square.

We desperately need to beg, steal or borrow a van and a couple of brawny individuals a little younger than most of our members!

We'd be most grateful if any group or individual who might be able to help can contact me on 07773 446276 or at: [email protected] .

Many thanks.
