For our last summer visit of 2019, Hedon and District Local History Society heads to Sutton and Wawne Museum , located in Sutton's Grade II-listed former St James' Church of England School (1859). The museum was founded in 1998 by Merrill and Peter Rhodes primarily as a family history centre but has since developed extensive collections covering the ancient villages and historic parishes of Sutton and Wawne - parishes which until the late 19th century ran all the way from Meaux to the north side of Witham, including Stoneferry, Wilmington, St Marks and The Groves.
