What’s On September – December 2015

Here’ s our programme for the rest of this year, including a couple of talks which promise to be fascinating, some hands-on finds identification and festive frivolities, we hope you can make it to some or all of them.

September 11th – 13th Heritage Open Days
We’ll be in the Old Public Bar at the Swan Hotel on Friday 11th from 10.00 – 4.00 with our HLF funded Great War project The Hidden Commemoration in the Waveney Valley. Come and give us a look. We’d love to hear any family memories about the Great War, and if you’ve got any photographs, souvenirs or objects from the Great War please bring them along.

We’ll also be at the Tea and Memories afternoon at the Swan on Sunday 13th from 3.00 – 5.00. There’s more information about both events here. Click on Locations and select South Norfolk.
