:The Society was formed in 1973. Its specific aim was to foster an interest in Lenton Priory but this soon developed into a general interest in the history of the locality. Old and New Lenton, Lenton Sands and Dunkirk, the Lenton and Dunkirk Industrial Estates, plus the Lenton Abbey and Wollaton Park housing estates are all considered now to fall within the Society's area of interest. | :The Society was formed in 1973.

:Long Eaton & District Heritage Society was formed by a group of local dedicated volunteers, who were concerned that many of the old local artefacts in the area were being thrown away or lost without just cause. We therefore decided that the motto of the Society should be, "Save it! One day it will be history". | :Long Eaton & District Heritage Society was formed by a group of local dedicated volunteers, who were concerned that many of the old local artefacts in the area were being thrown away or lost without just cause.
