Welcome to the November 2019 News Letter.
We were all so disappointed that Thomas Macey, due to ill health, was unable to come and talk to us at our September meeting. We have invited him to come early next year and give his presentation about ‘Jacksons’, the iconic store which served the people in Reading and far beyond for so many years.
On Thursday 21st November, our Chairman Ken Hussey will talk about the Mitford family and in
particular Mary Mitford, a well-known character who lived locally. This is one of his favourite subjects in local history, so we are in for a treat.
Do come and join us
Our meetings are usually on the third Thursday of the month at 7.45pm for 8pm, in the Rose Room
at Swallowfield Parish Hall. Visitors are always welcome. If you have any queries, please call our
Secretary, Maggie Uttley, on 0118 988 2954 or email her on [email protected]
