East Midlands Oral History Archive

Leicestershire Villages

In the 2000s, EMOHA added short oral history clips from full interviews held in its archive to village pages of the Leicestershire Villages website, creating a large resource of sound clips dealing with a variety of rural events and issues. The Leicestershire Villages website has since been discontinued by Leicestershire County Council, but EMOHA continues to post some of this material here.
