Women of Note

Description

A booklet to accompany the BDLHS 2026/7 exhibition ‘Women of Note’. When you think of the phrase ‘Women of Note’ your mind might automatically conjure up images of a certain celebrity, a noted author or a historical figure. However, the idea of a ‘woman of note’ is much wider than that. Culturally the phrase is used to describe women who may have made their mark on the world in some way, but that doesn’t have to be through creating change or achieving celebrity. Arguably a ‘Woman of Note’ is any woman who is memorable or inspiring in some way and Bromyard has had more than its fair share of those ladies!
