MEMORIES of village life last century will be coming alive at a special one-day event.
Sheriff Hutton village hall plays host to an exhibition of memories on Sunday.
Old photographs of residents, pictures of scenes around the village, and items made, used or found in the area will be on display for visitors to come and reminisce.
Organiser Alan Farnaby said: "We are getting some very good old photographs, and all the copies of the Village News going back 40 years will be on display.
"The idea is for people to be able to come in between and just browse. All aspects of village life throughout the 20th century will be covered."
Mr Farnaby said: "We are hoping it will give people a flavour of it. We've got old yokes, and old pans and baking tins made by Mr Groves the tin-smith in the early part of the century. It's amazing what's turning up when you start to look."
The exhibition runs from 11am to 4pm.
Entry costs £1.50, inclusive of light refreshments, with money raised in aid of the over-60s luncheon club.
