From Parwich & District Local History Society:
We are working on the next issue of the Local History Society newsletter and wondered if anyone had any more/better photographs of the old Parwich Church Institute, which can be seen here on the right hand side of the photograph below, behind the cart shed and the carbide shed.
Also does anyone have information on where this corrugated metal prefabricated building came from? Local tradition has it that it was a redundant World War I military building, though it would have been moved here about the same time that the buildings from Tin Town were being sold off. Tin Town was a temporary village (complete with shops, church and school) created for the workforce that constructed the Howden and Derwent Reservoirs.
If you can help please email parwich@hotmail.co.uk or contact Peter T (tel 287).
