SPAB Dorset Regional Group Meeting

Peter Brachi, the current temporary Chairman of the group invites Members in Dorset (and surrounding areas) to Coombe Keynes for a special meeting, which will be centred in the Church of the Holy rood.

The day will include a talk about the church and the Trust and a walkabout in the village to learn its history and development and experience it’s character, focusing on the way local geology has influenced the character of its historic buildings.

Programme:
11am – Meet at Holy Rood Church for refreshments and discussion  
12pm – Talk about the church and the establishment, achievement and ambitions of the Coombe Keynes Trust  
1pm – Buffet lunch 
2pm – Introduction to the history of the village and local geology, followed by a short walk to see the village and look at one or two of the older buildings  

It may be that these elements of the day will merge together to some extent; and it is imagined that the meeting will fizzle out naturally during the afternoon.

If you would like to attend for the whole day, please reserve your spot through the SPAB website (see below). Alternatively, trust members and friends are encouraged to come along at 2pm and enjoy the walk for free.
