| Members'
Projects Research projects on which members are
active are often seen as a health indicator for societies such as
ours. These brief descriptions will be picked up by Google etc and we hope that useful contacts will be generated. |
| Portable Antiquities Scheme Finds Direct access to the PAS Database to view records of finds in our parishes and the wider area. Thousands of archaeological objects are discovered nationally each year, many of these by metal detector users, but also by people whilst out walking, gardening or going about their daily work. Finds in our area recorded with the Scheme help to advance our knowledge of its history and archaeology. |
|
STREETS & ROADS Aims to build up an on-line
record of change in Ashtead, the Bookhams, Fetcham &
Leatherhead main streets and roads from memories and images.
It's what the camera in our phones was made for!

| Potted
Histories This was a monthly series of
local history articles, almost all written by the late Goff
Powell, published in the popular Ashtead & Leatherhead
Local. They were based on Goff's own extensive collection of
local postcards and on images held by the Society. This is a valuable resource worth sharing and is searchable. Use the + button when viewing one. |

Surrey and to websites you have found useful for local history. Which ones are we missing? |
