Essex Archaeological and Historical Congress is the umbrella organisation for local history societies in Essex. The High Country History Groups is a member of this organisation, since we believe that the Congress can offer a co-ordinating role for such societies.
Each year, Congress organises both an archaeological and a historical symposium. The Local History Symposium for this year, 2004, has the title The Church in Essex.
The symposium is to be held on:
Saturday, 20th March 2004
10.00 am to 4.30 pm
at
Christ Church, New London Road,
Chelmsford.
Speakers will include:
Professor Nigel Saul
Dr Julian Litten
Stephen Nunn
Andrew Phillips, and
Dr Jennifer Ward.
There is no limit on the number attending from societies or groups – everyone is welcome. The cost for each attendee is £15, or £10 excluding lunch.
Cheques or postal orders should be made payable to “Essex Congress”, with a stamped, addressed envelope, and sent to the Hon. Sec., Mrs G. Morris, 56, Armond Road, Witham, Essex CM8 2HA.
