Since ADLHS was formed in 1974, its members have diligently researched the history of the locality, publishing their findings. Over the years we have produced Occasional Papers and Miscellaneous Histories on a wide variety of local topics, as well as over a thousand articles and snippets of interest in our journal, Local Past.
Having originally reproduced our publications by duplicator, then by photocopier and printer, we are now ready to move into the digital age. We are in the process of digitising our indexes, our photo archive and publications – many of which will be revamped, updated and illustrated – before making them available to Alcester and the world via this website.
Our archive is an Aladdin’s cave of indexes, photos research notes and memoirs. Be sure to visit us here regularly to find the latest releases on offer or even join the Society (for an anual fee of just £3.50!) to receive our member's monthly newsletter and to access our digital archive.
If you live locally, then keep an eye out for our events and those of neighbouring groups, published here. We hold a monthly lecture meeting, open to both our members and the general public, with speakers on a wide range of interesting and relevant topics.
