*********
Pending a decision on any more formal arrangements, the Society is continuing to operate informally with John Talbot as Chair and an ad hoc Committee comprising Julie McDonnell (Secretary), Tracey Talbot (Treasurer), Mary Thompson and Bill Hanks, but without paying members. Any activities (meetings, talks or visits etc) will be organised on a one-off self-funding basis for the time being.
Meanwhile, the Society is launching a new project “Memories of Sutton Courtenay”. For further details, click here.

Three school photographs dating from the 1950s have recently been added to the Society’s archive. The relevant Gallery page can be accessed here.
The Society is grateful to Pauline Philbrook née West and Carol Lidbetter née Hyatt for sharing these photographs.
[Carol Lidbetter has also shared two photos of street parties held in Town Close and Frilsham Street to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation in 1953. These may be found on the “Events” page.]
