Annotating Postcards Workshop

In Camp “A Spell of Rest!” – Ian Lowes Collection

We are delighted to announce that we are going to hold a series of workshops which will focus on annotating postcards and photographs of Stobs.

There are many images of Stobs Camp belonging to local collectors. We have been busy scanning these collections and whilst this process is not complete there is now an abundance of material that we can start annotating. The task in hand is to itemise each image and capture information such as the subject and content, date, regiment, postal address, orientation and approximate location. We envisage that this work will continue over the coming months.

We also have a collection of images that you can work through at home in your own time. So if you are interested in helping explore these wonderful images of Stobs get in touch!
