The Millenium was celebrated in the Bythams area in a number of different ways...


Castle Bytham

The Parish Council presented a Commemorative Coin to each child aged 11 or under as at 31st December 2002.


Little Bytham

In Little Bytham a "pictorial souvenir" was published to "celebrate the beginning of the thrid millenium" as the Preface to the publication states.

The book includes a "combination of bygone scenes and historical insight into what remains today". A copy of the book was distributed to each house within the village and is currently (March 2003) available for sale in the Castle Bytham Stores for a nominal £1.

The cover of the book is reproduced to the right, it is hoped that one day, the whole book can be reproduced on this website for posterity.
