Genesis Project at St Collen’s welcomes local history research


The Genesis Project team at St Collen’s Church say they were delighted to welcome Morgan Ditchburn from Conwy History (@conwyhistory) on Monday who shared fascinating insights from her ongoing research and how it connects with the history of St Collen’s and the wider area.

As the Genesis Project continues to move towards the final stages before work begins, the project team is bringing together historians, researchers and heritage specialists to help shape new interpretation within the newly reordered church.

This work will ensure that the rich stories of St Collen’s, its people, its heritage, and its place within the community, can be shared with visitors and future generations in engaging and meaningful ways.

A spokesperson for Genesis said: "We were also pleased that documentary filmmaker Mal Malloy, who is working with the project, was able to film an interview with Morgan during her visit. This will form part of the project’s developing digital archive and documentary material, helping to capture the research and stories connected with St Collen’s.

"The Genesis Project aims to create a more flexible and welcoming space within the historic church, while also enhancing opportunities to learn about and experience its remarkable history.

"We are extremely grateful to Morgan for sharing her expertise and contributing to the growing understanding of the church’s heritage.

"Further updates, including the anticipated start date for the works, will be shared soon.

"Watch this space!"
