"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.
