We are very excited to be able to share 33 oral history interviews, recorded in 2007 by the Museum of Royal Worcester. This unique collection of audio stories, captured by oral historian Julia Letts, is owned by the Museum of Royal Worcester and preserved in its archives, but thanks to support from Worcester City Council, we are now able to share the contents online.
Click on a picture to be taken to an individual’s recording. You will also be able to read or download a summary of their interview.
