HOUSEFIRE-HORSHAM
« on: Monday 17 September 12 12:28 BST (UK) »
Just wondered whether anyone had any recollection of a housefire
at 6, Victoria Street, Horsham, in late 1987 or early 1988.
Most of the archives of the local paper were destroyed in a fire last
year.
I am overseas and visiting the local  library would not be easy.
Thanks for any help.
Ian

Have you tried Horsham Museum?    They may keep clippings of that sort of thing.

The local paper is The West Sussex County Times, Horsham.  They may have info on microfiche.
