Welcome to the new Bisley Village Website.

Due to the sad and untimely death of the previous webmaster, Nick Riches, the website has not been updated since January and you may find some of the information out of date as I had to copy what I could from Nick's original site.  Please contact me so I resolve can this asap.

I have tried hard to keep the spirit of Nick's original site whilst at the same time building the new one with a technology that will allow everyone in the village to contribute directly to the site - should you wish. This site is built on a system that will allow you to add and to edit your own copy on the site from your own pc, once you have been registered. Registration is easy - just click on the Register link to the left under the login button; once verified (to keep out the idiots!) you will be able to update your content directly. If you can use MS Word you will be able to use the editor! I will be happy to give lessons to anyone who wants them, and the more members we have contributing the more useful and dynamic the site will be for the whole community.

Another new feature is the Bisley Forum. Here I have put a variety of topics that I hope are relevant - if you want more headings just let me know. I hope this forum becomes a useful and quick way for everyone to swap information. Currently you can sign up without being vetted - you just need a valid email address - I hope we can keep it this way but if it gets spammed I will obviously change this setting. If you have a particular interest in any of the categories and would to oversee that category please let me know and I will set you up as a moderator. Thanks to Karianne Fisher who is the first person to sign up as a moderator for the genealogy forum.

There will be teething problems for the next couple of weeks (I think all emails are now working!) as this site goes live, and some pages still need completing - especially the 'how-to' articles - but I thought it important to eventually get it published first and finish it after. I hope you like it - I dedicate it to Nick Riches who put in such hard work for the original site and I hope this one turns out as popular his original.
