The Tim Sayers Library

Miss I Sayers, known to her friends as ‘Tim’, was an enthusiastic member of the society and served on the committee for many years until her death in 1999. She left a considerable collection of local history books to the Society, to which have been added a number of books purchased by the Society to aid research for members acting as town guides.

The books are housed in the Bury St. Edmunds branch of the Suffolk record Office in Raingate Street, and are available, on application, for use by current members of the Past & Present Society.
