We seek to explore, uncover and restore the history of the forgotten and maligned. Further we aim to revitalise mainstream local history which welcomes and seeks debate and disagreement rather then seeing it as a threat. In other words goodbye to Sir Francis Drake and all that. The main activity of the Society at the moment will be via this website. Hopefully at some point in the future we can expand into publications and lectures with guest speakers.
Any further suggestions wuld be welcome.
We invite all those interested in the remit of this Society to send in any articles of any kind whether in the categories listed below or not. We would especially like to hear from those who have access to banners of any relevant kind, Trade Union or campaigning etc., and would permit photographs to be taken and provide a short history of the banner. Please e-mail us with anything you like or requests for further information.
