High Country History Group: Talk on Colchester, Thursday 24 October 2013

High Country History Group Talk.

"'A Student's Guide to Colchester' is the title of our next meeting to be held on Thursday 24 September.  Our Secretary, Andrew Smith, is currently doing a Certificate in Local History at the University of Essex and has completed two modules on the history of Colchester, a very interesting town with a rich Roman past.  Andrew's presentation will be about the archaeological discoveries of the twentieth and twenty-first century which have helped in the understanding and to tell the history of the town.  His highly illustrated talk will take those present on an armchair (well, seated) tour of the town through the ages. It is a history of both Roman Britain and recent archaeology.  Andrew is not a Colcestrian, hence the title.  All welcome. Toot Hill Village Hall, Stanford Rivers, Essex, Thursday 24 September beginning at 8.00pm. Visitors £3 (includes refreshments)."
