The first thing to make clear is that this website has no connection with Blisworth Parish Council. The basic objective of the website is to maintain an on-line archive which combines the historical material from George Freeston's collection with more recent writings on the history of the village and with an on-going record of recent major developments in the village which in turn becomes history too. Naturally, we are always open to suggestions for improving the presentation on this site and enhancing the quality of the material. Some may have valuable ideas and we are keen to hear them. By the way, we are never shy of linking to other sites in order to satisfy an assumed keenness of any browsing user to chase up anything related. Our links are without prejudice - competition on the internet is to be abhorred. Copyright: There maybe many photos on this site which are not acknowledged in terms of their copyright. In every case I have looked for copyright evidence and found no trace. If any doubt is raised, I will immediately removed the image. It cost too much in time and coding complexity to protect each image from on-line copying and so the images on this site are not protected - remember it is up to the copyists to determine copyright and they should be cautious in their actions. Readers: thank you all for your time and your kindness in contributing views and historical detail.
