Houses have fascinating histories too! The social side of our ancestors can often be just as interesting as the individuals themselves.

The course will cover:
Identifying key features of dating buildings
Identifying sources for buildings

No previous experience is needed.
Can be booked separately or alongside the Family History for Beginners Course to create a full day experience.
