The Historical Research Group of Sittingbourne
John Clancy
Sittingbourne has a new local history society, ‘The Historical Research Group of Sittingbourne’. The Group was inaugurated following the interest generated by the decision to demolish the Plough public house in East Street. It was noticed from public reaction that a renewed interest was being taken in the town’s heritage.
Membership fee will be £15 per annum for a single member and £20 for a family. For this, members will receive a monthly newsletter (the first of which has just appeared), have access to exclusive courses offered at reduced costs, four lectures and eight social evenings per year, family-orientated events, organised field trips and opportunities to assist in larger scale research projects.
The Group will embrace all levels of research and its members will be encouraged to get actively involved in the Groups’ activities. The Group does not portray itself purely as a research organization but as a rescue organization as well, to help preserve the town’s heritage.
For further information and details please contact Alan Abbey on the Group’s dedicated phone line, 01795 535608.
