Rowhedge on the River Colne was once a hive in maritime industry.

Today, there is significantly less in this now very nice riverside village.

Volunteers with the Rowhedge Heritage Trust are working to capture and tell the stories for future generations.

Nick Baker & Roz Watling joins Owen to tell him more about their work and what people can discover from their archive.

They also have a free exhibition planned for 13 and 14 May 2023 taking place in Rowhedge Village Hall.

More details can be found on their website: www.rhtcharity.org.uk
