Heritage Wells

As part of the fundraising initiative for the wider Gormley Project, Project Factory has produced a 32pp visitor brochure for Wells Heritage Partners. It is titled Heritage Wells: An Introduction to the Historic Sites of Wells with a Foreword by Annie Maw, HM Lord-Lieutenant of Somerset. It will be on sale for £4.50 at the heritage sites and will benefit the community projects launched by the Gormley Project.

Wells Heritage Partners was created as a formal entity in September 2020, and is a partnership between Wells Cathedral, The Bishop’s Palace, the Wells & Mendip Museum and the Bishop’s Barn.

Visitors to Wells are often unaware of how many medieval sites there are in close proximity to one another. This brochure, with a map, is intended to ensure they miss nothing.

The brochure is photography led, with some beautiful photography from Nick James LRPS of D H James Photographic Supplies, and text written by representatives of all the heritage sites. This is the first time such a collaboration has taken place and includes other important entities such as St Cuthbert’s Church and the Mendip Hospital Cemetery.
