Biddenden Local History Society
Between 700 and 900 AD the area of the present Biddenden parish contained a number of separate 'dens' or small clearings in the great forest of Andred frequented by freemen and swineherds. Biddenden was probably the den used by the family and followers of Bidda.
Brenchley & Matfield Local History Society
The Society was founded in 1971 and since then it has thrived with a membership of over 100, encouraging an interest in both local and national history. It is affiliated to, and works in close collaboration with, the Parish Archive.
Bromley Borough Local History Society (BBLHS)
Formed in 1974 so those with an interest in the history of the people, events and places that make up London's largest borough could meet to exchange information and learn more about the long and fascinating story that makes up the London Borough of Bromley and all its constituent parts.
Canterbury Historical and Archaeological Society
Established in 1920 ‘to encourage the study of the history and antiquities of the City of Canterbury and surroundings and to preserve the architectural features and characteristics of the City.’

Farningham and Eynsford Local History Society (FELHS)
Formed in 1985 by a small group of enthusiasts anxious to research and preserve the history of their locality before it was lost as a result of the increasing pace of life and the throw-away society in which we now live.
Folkestone Research & Archaeology Group (FRAG)
We are a group who are interested in archaeology and the heritage of Folkestone and the surrounding areas. Having met as volunteers on a major dig in the area, we decided to create a group that focuses on this area of Kent.
