Welcome to the Barton and Tredworth website!

Here, people connected with the area can share their memories about life and work in this unique part of Gloucester.  You can read and listen to other people’s stories, see their photographs and videos, and share your own material.

These stories make up a distinct shared inheritance.  This site isn’t only about what happened in Barton and Tredworth many years ago.  It’s also about what’s happening now.  It’d be really interesting to hear about a day in your life, if you’d like to share your experiences with us.

We want to ensure that the content of this site reflects what you wish to see on it.  Thus, if you have ideas about themes that you would like the site to explore, please do get in touch with your suggestions.

Please note that the views expressed on this website are those of the article authors and interviewees, and do not necessarily reflect the views of the site editors.
