Welcome to Leatherhead &
District Local History Society
The Society was formed in
1946 for everyone interested in the history of the area
including Ashtead, Bookham, Fetcham and Headley as well
as Leatherhead.
We meet
at the Letherhead Institute at
the top of
Leatherhead High Street on the 3rd Friday of September to May,
for lectures on local history topics. These start
at 8pm with coffee served from 7.30pm and are
open to all, members £1, visitors £2.
We also arrange visits for members to places of
interest during the summer.
We have very
extensive archives of articles,
maps and photographs of the area and a library of
local history for use by members.
Our publications
include an annual Proceedings of the
Society with articles by members; a
quarterly Newsletter; and
various books on the history of
Leatherhead, Ashtead, Bookham, Fetcham and
Headley.
Our Museum of Local History is at Hampton Cottage, 64 Church Street
