Group members research and present topics which interest them, it can be a very eclectic mix. Amongst other subjects last year were The Exeter Blitz, The History of Taxes, Comparisons Between the 1665 Plague in London and Covid 19, Newton Abbot 100 Years Ago and William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke.
We began this year with a fabulous talk on The Siege of Mafeking - A Woman's Perspective, as recorded in a member's Great, Great Aunt's diaries, and in February a well-researched presentation on The Isles of Scilly; Wars, Lighthouses and Shipwrecks. In March we had An Alternative View of Medieval Monarchs and are looking forward to part 2 on the remaining Medieval Kings in October,
Next Meeting is Wednesday 8th April - speaker and subject to be confirmed, watch this space!
In August we go on a visit. Last year we went to St Nicholas' Priory, the oldest building in Exeter and plans for this year are underway.
