EXETER LOCAL HISTORY SOCIETY
WELCOME
Exeter Local History Society members are hooked on history. If you share our fascination, why not join us? We have six lecture meetings a year and six guided walks, plus occasional long distance outings, and we cover an incredibly diverse range of subjects from Roman remains to post-WW2 redevelopment.
The charge for each meeting is normally £3 (free to members) and the annual membership fee is £12 (£16 for joint membership). If you sample a meeting and decide to join, the £3 cost will be deducted from your first annual fee. Walks and visits normally cost £3 each for members and visitors.
We also produce six newsletters a year - how about we email you the most recent as a free taster? to request a copy just email ExeterLocalHistory@gmail.com. We hope we will see you soon at one of our events, listed below under "Up and Coming Events".
In the meantime, check out our website and see for yourself the great selection of subjects with which we entertain our members. Just click on "Recent Events" or "Visits & Walks" on the banner at the top of this page to explore our programme history! Click on "How To Join Us" for an application form.

FUTURE EVENTS FOR YOUR DIARY
Ed Williams-Hawkes will be talking to us about the famous and sumptuous Deller’s of Bedford Street which was so sadly destroyed in the Blitz. He will show us a selection of slides showing Deller’s in its heyday – part of the remarkable collection which he and his colleagues have worked so tirelessly to amass.

If you want to take historical research further, we recommend you give Exeter Memories a try. Their website has for the last ten years been amassing a wealth of information about Exeter. It is well worth a visit. Just click on this link: www.exetermemories.co.uk.
Another site of interest is http://demolition-exeter.blogspot.co.uk which features fascinating articles on Exeter's lost buildings.
