As part of the BBC TV history series, ‘The Great British Story’, the McManus Gallery in Dundee is staging a ‘History Day Out’ event on Saturday 30 June.

The British Newspaper Archive will be attending this event to give demos of the website and to help people with their ancestral searches.

The event runs from 10am to 4pm, and admission is free.

With quill pen making and loom weaving also part of the itinerary, it promises to be a grand day out for kids of all ages!

So if you happen to be in Dundee that day, then please drop by and say ‘hello’.
