What is heritage?

A person can have a family heritage – objects, stories and traditions passed down from our parents and grandparents. We can feel our family heritage throughout our lives as we experience the things that make our family special.

A place can have a heritage – buildings, features, events and traditions which shape the kind of place we live in.  

On this page you will find activities and games to help you understand the heritage of your own family and the village of Rowlands Castle.
