OUR HERITAGE, SHAPING LEDBURY’S FUTURE

PROTECTING OUR HERITAGE, SHAPING THE FUTURE

26 MARCH 2027 – MEETING

  

THE MASEFIELD MATTERS PROJECT.

For this CHRIS JOHNSON MEMORIAL TALK, we will be updated on the progress of the Masefield Matters project.

John Masefield was a best-selling poet and author from Ledbury, who was Poet Laureate from 1930 until his death in 1967. Since then, he has faded from public memory. The Masefield Matters project was set up to explore his legacy through a range of events celebrating his work and his life. The project will finish in 2028 with a memorial commemorating the 150th anniversary of John Masefield’s birth. The form of this memorial has been chosen by the Ledbury community through a series of consultation workshops and will involve a Masefield Trail through Ledbury.

 Speaker to be confirmed.

 

 

BURGAGE HALL MAP AND DIRECTIONS

Our Meetings

Meetings are held in Burgage Hall, usually on the last Friday of the month. They start at 7.30pm, unless otherwise stated.

We recommend arriving around 10 – 15 minutes beforehand so you have time to settle in and the meeting can start on time.

Open to members and non-members. Free for members, £5.00 for non-members. There is no need to book in advance unless otherwise stated. 

Burgage Hall is accessed from Church Lane and down the path beside Butcher Row House Museum.  Alternatively take Chapel Alley (next to the newsagents) off the High Street and enter through the double doors.

The Society organises about eight meetings each year.
