Today is national ‘Love your Library’ day and the fantastic Benfleet Community Archive are holding an exhibition at Benfleet Library today until 4:00PM, complete with special guest, Eric the Viking.

Come along for a coffee and see a huge collection of pictures and videos of Benfleet’s past. Eric has put down his mighty war axe for the day to answer questions about Benfleet’s place in history as the site where a Saxon army saw off a dark ages Viking hoard!
