Join us on the second Wednesday of every month to learn more about Dereham’s fascinating past.
Each month, Dereham Heritage Trust is proud to host an informative talk delivered by a guest speaker. Topics are varied, ensuring all aspects of the local area’s rich history are covered, and span from the last Ice Age up to the 20th century. Most speakers are distinguished visitors, though we are also privileged to have members who present their own research.
Unless otherwise stated, meetings begin at 7.30 pm and are held at the Trinity Methodist Church Hall, Trinity Close, Theatre Street, Dereham, Norfolk, NR19 2EP. (Parking is available behind the building, via Trinity Close.)
Admission costs only £1 for members of the Dereham Heritage Trust, and £3 for non-members (cash only). Post-talk light refreshments are included. Everybody is welcome!
