Working Waiting Weeping

The Brickworks were used to store munitions during the Great War. They continued to make bricks and there were 'women doing all sorts' on site. The local area was a big market garden and once a key provider of strawberries to London. The exhibition explores what people who were left behind did. The men who had to stay at their work, the women who started to work out of the home for the first time and the endless waiting for it all to be over.
We are also working with St Marys Church, Fordingbridge and hosting their exhibition on our site. They created a village within the church! We are going to re-erect it in our large exhibition area.
