Support We have received very positive support and enthusiasm so far but this needs to translate into action. We hope to be up to the job. Please be patient with us as we grow as we only came into being at the end of June 2023 when this website was created and regular meetings started in the October.
We welcome all contributions. Contact can be made by clicking the link to the webmaster’s address below.
Aims
Registered with the British Association Of Local History we are a new society, here in Stratford, to provide researchers at home or in schools, colleges and universities, initial material to conduct studies and to find forward contacts to people who are likely know more.
We’re not here to usurp any other group about a town that we all know and love. Quite the reverse we would like you to visit the others listed on our Links page. It is wonderfully true that William Shakespeare and his many associates contributed greatly to the richness of the English language, our culture, our humour and how stage drama and poetry are portrayed.
Most people don’t realise how much history there was here before and since The Bard and how many inventions and significant pieces of history were fomented here. Our collected pointers to local resources and archives of local material are not there to seek to exclude Will The Quill but redress the balance of factual support whilst engaging you the reader in some unique ways.
Obviously it is the Histories pages that will significantly expand over time.
