A NEW book on the history of Blackhall will be launched this morning at the village library.
Blackhall Between The Wars Part Two has been compiled by the village's local history group.
The first volume of the book, released last year, has now almost sold out, and the second volume concentrates on some of the people and organisations which thrived in the east Durham village.
An exhibition, featuring some of the photographs in the book and exhibits loaned by Beamish Museum, is also being held. It takes place in St Andrew's Church Hall from 11am to 5.30pm today and again from 9.30am to 12.30pm tomorrow.
Admission is free and refreshments are available.
