Each year the Eccles and District History Society offers this Award for work in local history. Frank Mullineux was a founder-member of the Society and he made a wonderful contribution to local history, so it is fitting that we remember Frank in making this Award each year.

This work may take various forms. It could be a publication, an essay, research, an exhibition or anything at all which promotes the study of local history or contributes to our knowledge of local history in some way.

The winner(s) will be presented with a suitable award of their choice of a value specified by the Awards Panel. They will also receive a certificate signed by the President and Committee members of the Society.

The Award is given for the work which is considered to have contributed most to the study of local history.
