The Durham Historical Society building at 744 Royalsborough Road got some love on Valentine’s Day with “heart bombs” from people showing their love for the building, which was built in 1835 as the Union Church. Submitted photo

Andrew and Chelsea Wynne, left, and Emily Alexander and Tyler Hutchinson pose Tuesday with their “heart bombs” at the Durham Historical Society at 744 Royalsborough Road, showing their love for the building. Built in 1835 as the Union Church, it served as the town hall from 1922 to 1983 before becoming the society’s home. The society said the four showed “a wonderful way to honor and bring much-needed love and attention to this beautiful historic building.” Next year, the society plans to “heart-bomb” another historic location in town.
