Looking at Old Buildings

mostly 4th Thursday — Time: mostly pm
Location: various — First session: 22 September

Usually meets on 4th Thursday of each month, but occasionally at other times. The group has been focussed on visits to look at old buildings in the local area and sometimes further afield to see how they are constructed and look for any interesting features that may help to date them. There has usually been a local guide or historian to show the group around and talk about the buildings. Each visit is arranged by an individual, who is responsible for putting the information regarding the venue, time and travel arrangements in the Newsletter the previous month.
