GREAT BOWDEN HISTORICAL SOCIETY
___________________________________________________________________

Welcome to the website of the Great Bowden Historical Society.

Here you will find a description of the Society and what we do, the 2010/2011 events programme, and a list of our Committee members.  There is also a page of useful links to other selected sites, plus information about the Society's publications and a selection of old photographs.

We hope you find our site interesting.  Please do come along to our meetings if you can. We meet at Great Bowden Village Hall on the first Monday of every month (except July and August).  A year's membership costs just £7 for adults, £5 for under 18's, and £12 for two people at the same address. Guests are always welcome, entry £2. Please click on the ‘Meetings Programme’ page for further information about our interesting programme of talks and our annual summer outing.

If you would like to join or have any queries, please send me an email with your contact details by clicking this link:

Our next pamphlet will include articles from current and former residents of Great Bowden. If you have any stories or recollections about the village that you would like to share, please do contact us - and you might see your work in print!
