Our 2025 Display
The Pewsey Heritage Centre's 2024 display is Agriculture in the Pewsey Vale
The theme for the 2024 Exhibition is the
Agriculture of the Pewsey Vale
, including information on Mr J.H.Maggs (left) who was the Chairman of United Dairies, there will also be displays on A.J. Hosier the inventor of the portable Milking Bail which provided milking facilities that could go to the fields, rather than moving the cows to a yard parlour. It remains a vital part of any system aiming to keep a milking herd outside in its natural environment. We will also have displays of farm equipment from our extensive collection, and lots, lots more.
The Pewsey Heritage Centre's 2023 display is Pewsey's sporting history.
The display covers some of the famous sports personalities from around the Pewsey Vale and the sports and sports clubs that have been a part of the Vale for nearly 200 years, there is also a display of items outlining the history of the Pewsey Hospital.
Pewsey Vale, although not large, has produced some famous sports personalities including, of course, Shelley Rudman, a skeleton bobsleigh athlete. She was the 2013 world champion, won an Olympic silver medal at the 2006 Winter Olympic Games and is a former World Cup and European champion, also Bill Amor, a local policeman, who played amateur football for Reading FC and competed in the England Team at the 1948 Olympics, where they came 4th, Bill scored in the 3rd/4th place playoff match.
The display covers these and others who have played sport in the Vale, it covers the sporting clubs of the Vale such as the Pewsey Vale Bowling Club (100 years young this year!) the Pewsey Tennis Club, and Pewsey Football Club, plus much much more.
