About

"Machen Remembered" came into existence in 1995, with the aim of compiling a record of the changes that had occurred in the lifetime of many of the older residents of the village. A public meeting was held and, following this, a committee was formed.

We set about collecting and recording the memories of the people about past events and life in the village, resulting in us receiving a large number of photographs and documents of all kinds
