WLHG is either holding or supporting events in and around the Windsor area. Here we will try to highlight them with the hope that you can attend.
Local History Research Day
Friday 17th April from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm
Organised by the Windsor Local History Group, this is the first of our special events. We are celebrating the group’s 50th anniversary this year.
All are welcome to attend this FREE session. It will be held in the Thames Room community space in the Windsor Library. This space is accessible by lift from the ground floor. This session is a great opportunity to explore maps, books, and other local history materials from the library’s reference collection. You can also see selections from the WLHG archives. We are also able to advise on resources for family history enquiries and house research. Copies of the group’s publications will be available to purchase, including the annual Windlesora magazine.
Windsor Library, Bachelors Acre SL4 1ER.
