Wadhurst History Society

Please note the Wadhurst History Centre will be closed for Christmas from Wednesday 19th December and will reopen on Tuesday 8th January 2019

 

Due to circumstances outside our control the date of Brian Braby’s talk “The Romans in Sussex” has had to be changed from Thursday 10th to Wednesday 9th January 2019. The venue remains the 6th Form Centre of Uplands

Our 2019 calendar is now available at the History Centre and in Magpie.   In the same format as last year’s popular calendar it costs £10.00 and features Wadhurst Parades and Celebrations.

Why not check out some of the many and varied past talks from Mediaeval Instruments to the Zeebrugge Ferry Disaster, to Sussex in the Great War and many more.

Regarded as the classic history of Wadhurst this book has been reprinted by the Wadhurst History Society and is now on sale for £12.50. To find out more click here

Work continues to index items of interest from the Society's large collection of newspapers. We feature just a few of these as a taster of what can be found in our archive and further snippets will be added from time to time.

Do you have a story or memory to share? Perhaps something your parents, grandparents or other relativesw told you. We would be delighted to add the information to our archives and that way future generations will be able to understand Wadhurst and its history better. Please print out and complete:
