Are you interested in local history? This could be the group for you! We cover various historical topics in the local area (see map Local History Our Patch 2025) with presentations, group discussions and visits (Summer). If you are new to the area find out about where you live. Presentations are given by individual members or groups to the benefit of all.

We also have a library of books about local topics and places of historical interest. Meetings take place in Barnham Community Hall in the winter and visits to places of interest in the summer months.

Group Leaders/Co-ordinators: Yvonne Ashton, Helen Roberts and Liz Stanton (admin).

For more information and to join the group email Liz Local History group administrator.
