TAGTM (T-Rex Action GroupTM) was founded OVER TWENTY YEARS AGO! Since then we have transformed the site described as "a shit-hole" in a magazine in 1995 into somewhere Marc Fans and local residents are rightly proud of ...

BRONZE BUST UNVEILED BY ROLAN BOLAN
In 2002, the year of Marc's 25th Anniversary our Bronze Bust of Marc Bolan was unveiled by his son Rolan Bolan in 2002.

MEMORIAL PLAQUES INSTALLED
In 2005, Memorial Plaques were installed to the members of T.Rex who had passed over. The idea of this was sown by Mickey Finn at the Bronze Bust unveiling in 2002 when he mused "When I go, I'd like to be remembered here." How could we say "No!" Mickey passed over less than four months after saying this! His friends, including TAG members all knew he was dying, but we all hoped the end would not some so quickly after the Unveiling. To be fair to all former-T.Rex members, TAGTM installed plaques not just to Mickey Finn, but to all those who had joined Marc: Steve Peregrin Took, Steve Currie, June Bolan, and Dino Dine.

OFFICIAL RECOGNITION
In 2007, the year of Marc's 30th Anniversary we are Proud to say that the site is now Officially Recognised as a Sight of Rock and Roll Importance as Marc Bolan's Rock Shrine by the English Tourist Board. This is something which would never have happened had we not taken the Action which was needed and more besides!

A SITE OF PILGRIMAGE
In 2013 Marc's Shrine was included in the BBC Series "Pagans and Pilgrims: Britain's Holiest Places" Episode 4: 'Shrines'

THE END OF THE 'BOLAN TREE'
In 2000, we saved 'The Bolan Tree' which was scheduled to be felled by the end of 2002, but ... Sadly in 2014 'The Bolan Tree' was hollowed out and filled with poison. This killed 'The Bolan Tree' and polluted the ground around the roots. We don't know why this was done. We only know 'The Bolan Tree' died and sadly in 2015 he was felled due to Health and Safety, and the terms of our "Third Party Insurance", because it was next to a busy main road.
At least TAGTM gave 'The Bolan Tree' an extra 13 years of being in situ allowing literally thousands of fans from around the globe to visit.
