The picture above was taken at our April 2024 meeting - all about St John Green's School. It shows some of the pupils who had been involved in a project and who livened up the meeting with their enthusiastic involvement!
Monthly meetings are held at the Roman Circus Centre (see map below) as detailed in the programme below, and commence at 11.00 am (with coffee from 10.45 am). They follow our traditional format, begining with an oral history segment and followed by an illustrated talk on an aspect of our local history.
