Proceedings/Newsletters
The group has been holding regular meetings presenting historical research into Bath and the surrounding area since 1986. Many of the speakers have undertaken original research and presented it at these meetings. This page contains links to the newletters, 1 to 64, produced from September 1986 until autumn 2012, and the annual proceedings of our meetings which have been published since then.
