Stanhoe Archive
Stanhoe Archive is the local history group. We are active in transcribing documents dating from the 14th century to the 1970s, collecting old photos, interviewing Stanhoe residents for our oral history collection, and researching the history of the village through maps and fieldwalking. In 2018 we celebrated our tenth anniversary.

In 2008 we were the happy recipients of a grant of £2,590 from the National Lottery under the Awards for All scheme. We have used this money to buy a professional-quality digital recording machine for our oral history work, a digital projector and screen for presentations, and other equipment and materials for displays and conservation.
If you would like to share documents, photos or memories relating to Stanhoe, please get in touch with our chairperson (tel 01485 518033).
Membership of Stanhoe Archive is open to anyone with an interest in Stanhoe and is currently free of charge.
