Completed & ongoing Projects

Many of the projects on this site, such as The Timeline and Public Houses will always remain "in progress" as additional new information is often found. 

There are, however, some pages that all the available information has been extracted and, as such, can be classed as complete for now. Details of these pages can be found below with the appropriate links added for convenience.
