Speaker: Simon Wenham

Simon looks at the changes in the use of the river Thames above London over the past 150 years and why its popularity for recreational boating grew dramatically and then declined. Simon is a member of the part-time tutor panel of Oxford University’s Continuing Education Department, where he teaches courses on the Victorian period.

Visitors are very welcome to attend our meetings (suggested donation £3).

Doors open at 7 pm.

The talk will follow the short Annual General Meeting.  If you’re coming just for the talk, please arrive before 7.30 when the AGM starts.
