PROJECTS
Members of the Society are able to conduct projects either individually or in association with other members of the Society.
The Bury Place Names Survey is being done in association with the Bury Archives using maps of Bury from the 18th century onwards. The database is now available to search on our website by navigating to the Place Name Survey page and following the instructions there.
Bury Architecture is a project being operated by one of our members, Roy Sandiford and some of the results are featured on this website.
Our Town is a series of pictures taken from our Journals, many of which have been taken by Terry Ashworth. These are also featured on the website.

This has led to some degree of controversy among Dunster scholars and researchers. However, despite extensive modern-day research by Charles Walker, a member of the Bury Local History Society and Henry Dunster Association this claim has not been decisively proven.
