Get to know your
Winsham Parish Web Site better-it is full of information that could be
of use to you.
A brief guide
that will help you find quickly what you want to
know ......
HOME PAGE-this is where you
start!
Icon Bar
Provides links via the icon bar to Winsham Web
Museum, the Winsham Parish Council Web Site, the current e-letter,
Market Place and the Winsham social media facilities. Just below you
will find the date that the site was up-dated.
Latest
Links
These will be found directly below the icon bar,
and are constantly changing. They take you to the latest postings, which
will give you more information about the matter described.
Social
Media
The role of the Social Media in village and parish
communications is growing rapidly, and it is the policy of Winsham on
the Web to encourage this by featuring Facebook, Text and Twitter
links whenever they are appropriate. Just keep an eye open for a logo,
and click on it-you should then be taken to the relevant page. However
if you do not already have a registration with the service in question,
you may need to register to get the link. This will only need to be done
once.
Picture
Links
By clicking on these links you will be taken to
specific areas relating to the picture subject-i.e. click on the picture
of St. Stephens, and you will go to the area on the web site devoted to
St. Stephens.
The content of these individual areas is described
in more detail below. It may surprise you to find just how much useful
information about general services can be reached through these areas,
often linking to official external web sites, and can be an alternative
to Google or filling your Bookmark or Favourites features on your
browser with items to which you will only need occasionally to refer .
Winsham Web Museum
Almost
certainly the first small community museum to exist solely in
cyber space, it has been archived by the British Library. It was
launched in 2002 and provides a remarkable record of the history
of Winsham since before the Norman invasion in1066, covering
many aspects of life. Contains some seven thousand items and
over four thousand pictures. Easy to navigate, it can provide
many hours of interest and entertainment.
