Britain's What's On Event Guide
Wheatley Hill Heritage Centre
Heritage Open Day: The Wheatley Hill Heritage Centre is a small museum, formerly the village chapel of rest, dedicated to remembering our coal mining past. The building was opened in 1907 by miners leader, Peter Lee who is buried in the cemetery. We also remember Thomas Kenny VC who is also buried in our cemetery. In 2015 his commemorative paving stone was laid near the war memorial.
This year visitors to the Centre will be able to see three of the four church windows we rescued from St Bart
