About this site

This website aims to provide access to local history resources in the collections of Warrington Museum, Library and Archives Service. This includes photographs and historic images, on-line exhibitions and oral and written history. We hope that the website will grow as people add their personal memories and their own images to the site.

The Gateway Through Time project came about in response to positive visitor feedback to local history exhibitions at Warrington Museum & Art Gallery. The Museum applied to the Heritage Lottery Fund for a grant in 2002 and was successful in securing finanaces to support four major exhibitions at the Museum between 2003 and 2006.

The project has also enabled the Museum to start to build an archive of oral history recordings with local people, and to digitise more of its photographic collections. We hope to feature clips from some of the oral history recordings on this website in the near future.
