Our next event is a social at The Red Lion on Market Square. Tuesday 14 January, from 12.15. We will have a short talk by Tom Tarver of Johnsons Property Agents in his role as Chair of the Evesham Place Board. Bring your own food but baked potatoes can be bought from the Spud Man next door and drinks available from the bar.  Please join us to find out about the successes of the Place Board since it was set up nearly 3 years ago and what it hopes to achieve over the next few years.  You are welcome even if you are not a member; we are keen to talk to anyone with an interest in the heritage of the town.

The first talk of the year at Ecgwins Club, 117 High Street, is by Nick Daffern, Associate Archaeologist at Dalcour Maclaren. The company specialises in work for utility and infrastructure companies to help deliver projects that are essential to our economy and communities. Nick's talk Evesham's Roman Ford? tells the story of his work for Severn Trent on land near Evesham and the discoveries that were made.
