Commissioned pages

Commissioned pages

Most of our HiPoint pages and corresponding QR labels have been created through unpaid volunteer effort.

Some pages have been commissioned, with an element of funding towards the time and costs involved. These commissions would not have been accepted unless the places to be featured accorded with our core principle – that we feature only places which are genuinely interesting. This ensures that where work has been commissioned, you won’t find any HiPoint pages which are designed as commercial marketing.

Please use the entries below to see where to find our commissioned QR codes and information. Most commissioned HiPoint pages display the commissioning organisation’s logo or crest.

If you are interested in commissioning a HistoryPoints project for your local area or specialist subject, please contact us via our Feedback form.
