EVER wondered what the landscape of the Quantock Hills looked like 100 years ago?
A new website, quantockviews.uk, aims to capture historic pictures, postcards and photographs of the Quantock Hills and the surrounding villages, building an online resource showing the changing landscape of England’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Quantock AONB volunteer Keith Edwards said: “Quantock Views started in order to pull together various existing collections of photographs, postcards and paintings which are rarely seen and to gather together private collections and recollections, which may be in danger of being lost to the Quantock community.”
To volunteer to collect and archive pictures, or if you have postcards, pictures or photographs which could be used contact 01823 451 884 or email quantockhillls@somerset.gov.uk.
