13 May- AGM and ‘Topics from the Archive’
Our final 2025/6 evening meeting on Wednesday 13th May, started with the AGM, and then featured sessions entitled “Topics from the Archive”.
Members and visitors also had a chance to look at selections from the extensive range of archive photos currently being catalogued at the WLHS study centre in Groves Yard.
The subjects chosen for the two presentations were from recent archive research. John Bennett gave us insights into his recent research of The Elms, the former Groves’ family home, and Carol Anderson presented the history around folk dancing in the Wychwoods, showing us also examples of dance costumes from pre WW2.
