TWO centuries of education in Barnoldswick are featured in a new exhibition in the Heritage Centre.
Photographs, school and church records and other educational artefacts are featured in a top-of-the-class display, compiled by the Heritage Trust and Barnoldswick History Society.
The exhibition was officially opened by Douglas Newsome, former headmaster at the town's Church Primary School, who said Barnoldswick's educational past had been good and the future looked bright and well set for the next millennium.
The exhibition will run at the Heritage Centre, on the first floor of the library, until July 31.
Other displays planned include the history of the church in Barnoldswick, which opens on August 7 and farming in the area, from the industrial revolution until the present day, which begins a four-month run in December.
