The ‘Women in Forestry, The Lumberjills Story’ exhibition celebrates the contribution of the World War II Lumberjills - a group of women who played a vital role in maintaining the supply of timber during the Second World War. The exhibition will contain images of some of the Lumberjills who worked in Grizedale brought in by members of the public as well as images of Lumberjills who supported the war effort across the country. Through this exhibition we hope to celebrate the crucial contribution these women did at that time.
