The meetings are at the Great Baddow Millennium Centre, where we enjoy talks and presentations on local subjects.
During the summer months, we visit different places of interest, villages, monuments or museums, again with a local history link.
We are a friendly group with a love of all things involving local history.

New members always welcome
