Meetings are held every two months from March to November. They usually take the form of talks by visiting speakers. We also have occassional Members Evenings where members are invited to speak about their own local history research or experiences. Meetings take place on Thursday evenings at 7.30pm at the Methodist Church, Dymchurch. We sometimes organise group visits to places of historical interest.
