"C of E laser scanning project and free website to make ‘huge difference’ to family history researchers"
"Funding for the programme has come from Historic England, the National Lottery Heritage Fund and Caring for God’s Acre, a charity which helps care for burial grounds, and genealogy research websites."
It is to be hoped that NLHF's new requirement, that the results of what they fund be released under open licence, will apply, and that no exemption to that has been granted.
