| AIMS OF THE ASSOCIATION |
The Whiteparish History and
Environmental Group (sometimes called the History Society) aims to help and encourage Whiteparish residents to find
out about the history of our village, of nearby communities, and of our region. We hold regular meetings during the winter
months; during which invited guest speakers
talk to us about local historical or environmental matters.
