Unfortunately, the meeting on September 12th, The Battle of Naseby, has been postponed as our speaker, Len Holden, is due an operation around that date. We plan to reschedule next year. We are indebted to Geoff Woods who has agreed to step in at short notice with a talk on ‘Buildings at Risk’. Geoff will discuss local buildings of different types which, for a variety of reasons, are all under-resourced or threatened and will outline what is being done to preserve them for future generations.
