It was with some sadness that it was unanimously voted at our recent AGM for our society to be wound up.
The society began with a good core back in 1999, but sadly over the years we have lost several members, and it is difficult to carry on with so few attending meetings. It has achieved far more than many other history groups with many books and publications and a host of speakers.
It was felt that all the local history was mostly complete, with no more books planned and difficulty in obtaining grant funding due to having to be in Welsh and English.
It was with regret put to a vote, which was unanimously accepted by the members to wind up the History Society.
A further meeting is needed to sort out transfer of funds etc. as per the constitution - this will be on 17th September.
Publications will still be on sale from Ruth Roberts.
