The Westerham Society

The Westerham Society Committee announced the launch of our Heritage website project on 5th February. Check out the new site at http://www.westerhamheritage.org.uk

The Westerham Heritage project has been four years in the making, seeking expertise, gaining Lottery funding, collecting and organising data and providing a wonderful product for current and future Westerham generations. Congratulations to Bill Curtis and his front line team of Jacs Taylor-Smith, Louise Wood, Jenny Smith and Stuart Merrylees. Bill has chiefly been responsible for collection of historic material from Westerham families and other varied sources even from  the days prior to this project.

The Society’s AGM was held on 23rd March 2018. Gordon Rogers and Mitch Young both stood down, as Chairman and Events Secretary respectively, after five years of valuable service. Peter Hills has taken on the role of Chairman and Bob Holt joins the Society’s Committee as Events Secretary.
