Our Local History Collection is illustrated by Tamworth’s bicentennial quilt, stitched thirty years ago by many loving hands. We are constantly receiving donations of books, papers and artifacts about Tamworth’s history, and not everything has yet been catalogued. Please leave a comment if there is something specific you are looking for.
