ABV is working on various projects involving local and national heritage. Our contributors include photographers, artists, designers, database and software consultants, community and charity workers. Our vision is to grow this web site into a resource for the range of projects that we are working on so that communities can find and share information with one another. By working with local communities we strive to create awareness of each others skills and needs. More about this...
British Industry - the last 50 years - end of an era

Industry has played an important role in Britain and now with the demise of many of the industrial sites in Britain ABV is creating a database of these historical industries.
