‘Giving Ryde’s Past to the Future’

Historic Ryde Society Quiz Night Thursday 29 May 2025 at Yelf's Hotel, at 7p.m. for 7.30pm.

Dinosaur Isle in Sandown organised a free admission event for parents and children and invited HRS to attend. We could not compete with a fossil display so we provided items under the title ‘Not only fossils come out of the ground’. We had a display of many items dug up or found  by metal detectors, etc. that the children were invited to pick up and examine. It was attended by some 2500 people and it was nice to see parents who did not have to say ‘Don’t touch’ !! The team members: David Newman, Brian and Sandy Harris.
