EARLS COLNE’S FIRST BLUE PLAQUE
Wednesday 29th October 2025
Today, the Museum was pleased to unveil the first blue plaque to be erected in the Village, commemorating philanthropist Mary Gee. An invited guest list of over 70 people from around the county witnessed the Lord Lieutenant of Essex, Mrs Jennifer Tolhurst, unveil the plaque. Our thanks to both Colne House, Kinglsey Healthcare and Colne Valley Golf Club for their kind hospitality to make this event so memorable.
This tribute forms part of the Women’s Blue Plaque scheme, which continues to shine a light on remarkable women whose contributions have too often gone unrecognised.
