Great to see everyone at the Shipston-on-Stour and District History Society | Monthly Meeting and our thanks to Martin Russell for an entertaining discourse. Comparing Shipston's history to the layers of an onion, Martin steadily pealed back 3000yrs to the ancient salt path that crossed the River Stour ford at we now know as 'Watery Lane.'

The next meeting is Monday, 16th November when we will hear about The Fosse Way.

This afternoon we were at Moreton in Marsh & District Local History Society to talk about Tramway200. Amazing to see an original print of the 1821 Act

The theme of our next History Society meeting is "What has Shipston ever done for us?"

If you'd like further information, attend a monthly meeting as our guest and speak to current members and trustees. Come and give us a try!
