We visited the Société Jersiaise archives to have a look at what archival materials they had of Elizabeth Castle.

The Société Jersiaise photographic archives mission is to produce and facilitate research on the Island’s history. They achieve this by working with local and international heritage partners. The Société holds extensive bibliographic, cartographic, photographic and research collections. These collections show us our heritage and are valued by the Jersey community.

We also visited Capital House to see an exhibition called no place like home which displayed a range of artists work.

No Place Like Home exhibition

We also, visited the exhibition at Capital House called ‘No Place Like Home’ which had a range of work by various artists from all over the world on what they viewed as ‘home.’

One artists work that I was drawn to was Harriet Mena Hill Aylesbury Estate Fragments. It was made up of pieces of concrete that are from the demolished housing estate Aylesbury in South East London. She was moved by the residents stories and wanted to document them.
