The History of Bath Research Group was founded in 1986 with the objective of bringing together historians who were actively engaged in research in the Bath area.
Over the years many have published on different aspects of local history (including studies in the journal Bath History) and have given talks at our meetings.
We also welcome those who simply wish to learn more about Bath's history and to support us in the work that we do, to attend our regular talks and visits, or to follow us through this website.
20th November 2023
We have now completed our autumn season of talks and will continue our 2023/24 programme after the Christmas break. In January our secretary, David Crellin, will be giving a talk on his latest finding connected with his research into John Wood and his family. Due to the wide interest expressed in this research, the meeting has been moved from our usual venue in Bathwick to BRLSI in Queen's Square, this will take place on the 10th January.
Please note: The Meetings Calendar has now been updated to reflect the change to the January date and venue and also shows the rearranged dates for our two visits in May and June.
Our full list of meetings for the 2023-24 session is now available from our meetings page.
