Our Burley History group are bringing the past to life with their engaging exhibition and the unveiling of the Burley Stories map - connecting the community through the rich and remarkable history of Burley!

Step into the rich history of our community with Burley Stories, an interactive map showcasing personal accounts, memories, and local heritage. Explore fascinating photographs (courtesy of leodis.net and other archives), listen to the voices of local residents and uncover the hidden stories behind familiar streets and landmarks. Our exhibition brings together past and present, inviting you to connect with the people and places that shaped Burley.

Meet friendly local faces, share your own memories and discover unexpected connections with those who call Burley home or once did. The Burley History Group will be present to share their knowledge and passion for our area’s heritage, while the Burley Stories map grows with every story shared. This is more than an exhibition, it’s a living history of our community, built by the people who love it.

Come join us on a stroll down memory lane and why not share your own Burley stories and help keep our community’s history alive!
