As well as our monthly talks, we also have a Day School  and very interesting AGM's

Who we are

 

The Group was formed in 1983 by a varied collection of professionals and amateurs keen to see more work on the lesser buildings of Essex published for all to see and comment on. They were a mix of people having many varied interests in the field of study loosely covered by the term ‘historic buildings’. Buildings, materials, documents, landscape or just an inquisitive mind were the areas of interest. We have now published a continuing series of booklets, a manual on recording a building, hold a Day School once a year and provide Sunday guiding at the Cressing Temple site.

 

New members are always welcome; the only real qualification is to have an interest in historic buildings, their use, setting or documented history.

 

Visits are also arranged to buildings within and out of the area to broaden the views and ideas of the Group.

 

Evening meetings are held about every six weeks, normally at Moulsham Mill, Chelmsford, where local, national and internationally known speakers are invited to talk to the Group.

 

We would be delighted to receive any comments. Please contact us here.
