Wetherby Historical Trust

About the Author:

The Wetherby Historical Trust is a charity formed in 1985 to initially administer the profits from a book written by Prof. Robert Unwin from the University of Leeds who led a part time distance learning evening course in local history at Wetherby High School for a number of years. The participants in the course were the researchers that collected the data for the book as part of the course, and became the first Trust members. The aims of the Trust are to enhance, stimulate, advance and inform the knowledge and teaching of local history in the Wetherby area.
