Local history activities

This is for listing local history-themed pursuits that can be carried out. Feel free to add as appropriate (and create articles if sufficiently developed as a topic)

Particular topics will be developed further in time.

Apart from 'the usual activities associated with researching local history.'
 * Creating a wiki for a particular locality.
 * Gathering material for a common place book/scrapbook that relates to the area or particular aspects and places within it.
 * Researching the local government of a particular area.
