This first issue is bound to be somewhat experimental in both content and format, for the Journal can and should evolve according to the needs of the Society. ‘Journal’ sounds a rather grand title for a relatively small Society to adopt but it is the term often used to distinguish a permanent record of articles from the more ephemeral contents of a Newsletter. The Journal will be annual and its principal function will be to further the objectives of the Society. These are set out in the constitution and in summary are: • to study the local history of this area • to publish the results. The Journal can therefore carry a wide range of topics covering all periods. The most important point to make is that the contents must be contributed by members. The editor will supply some material but is not going to fill each issue – no contributions, no Journal! Local history is not confined to the distant past, even yesterday is now history and the sooner changes are recorded the better, before the evidence is lost.

The unique set of circumstances that the pandemic has resulted in has stopped the summer programme this year. In addition, it is our twentieth anniversary, so the committee felt it was time to review our progress so far and reminisce about some of our previous events undertaken in less strange times. The research for the last two summer visits, which we had originally hoped would still run, has been ongoing, so it was decided to publish this as two “virtual” summer visits, in lieu of the real ones, so that everyone can particpate vicariously. Similarly, the treasurer’s work on the preparation of the accounts for the last year which are normally presented to the AGM, has also continued, so the summary figures and her report are included here. Other matters normally discussed at the AGM are noted below.
