Meetings
The first of our two May meetings took place on 10th May. This was our rescheduled December meeting, held at Park Place. We were warmly welcomed by Sister Evelyn Cadoz who gave us ‘A Glimpse into Park Place Pastoral Centre & its Mission’. The meeting report will be available soon.
The concluding meeting of our 2021-22 programme was held on Tuesday 24th May when we held a short AGM followed by a talk on Historic Knowle by Jane Painter. The meeting report will be available soon.
Guided Village Walks are back!
The walks are led by experienced WHS members. We cover the early origins of Wickham, including recent finds at Wykeham Vale behind School Road, key buildings like the Barracks, Square Cow and Chesapeake Mill and our medieval Square, said to be the second largest village square in England.
Choose from Thursday 16 June or Thursday 21 July at 7:00pm. Details can be found here.
