Calne Heritage Centre

Check out our collections PDF updated to June 2024, featuring over 2630 items. We are adding to the collection all of the time, so be aware that even if you cannot find what you’re looking for in this version of the index, we may still have items of interest to you. New additions include this  C&T Harris badge for long service buttonhole badge. Along with adding to our collection, we are always increasing the quality of previous accession information, which includes adding images and descriptions to items added previously. With that in mind, if you'd like to help us ensure that our fabulous collections are added to our database, making them accessible to researchers, visitors, and our volunteer staff, please do get in touch. We're always looking for data entry and digitisation volunteers. Check out the very first index of our collections database by downloading it  here .  

  Sending out thanks to all of our past and current volunteers. Your dedication to preserving local history, sharing knowledge, and creating a welcoming space for visitors is truly admirable. We often have volunteering opportunities, both in person at Calne Heritage Centre and from your own home. If this is something you'd be interested in, email us for a chat: email@calneheritage.co.uk #VolunteersWeek

  The most active website chronicling Calne's history and present events is Calne Past and Present. Calne Past and Present is the go-to website for chronicling Calne’s history and current events. Since its establishment in August 2017, this site has given rise to two books: ‘Calne Place Names,’ which delves into the origins and social history of street and area names, and ‘Calne Walks,’ a beautifully illustrated guide to 8 walks exploring Calne’s history and natural surroundings.  For a rich dose of Calne's past and present, visit: Calne Past and Present
