This page will keep you up to date with events running in the area relating to local history. We will also be reviewing past events and asking for suggestions for future events.

The Loddon Local History Group currently meets monthly, the forthcoming programme of speakers can bee seen by following the link on the left to go the Loddon Local History Group page.

We have been contacted, via this site, by several people with Loddon ancestors or contacts in the Loddon area. We are happy to answer queries whenever we can, but cannot undertake extensive research.

Loddon History runs an e-mail group which you can join to send and receive group emails about Loddon Local History Group, the Before Your Time books, forthcoming slide shows and exhibitions, other local history and genealogy news. I will also be notifying the email group when I update the website.
There are two ways to join, either send an email to
loddonhistory-subscribe@yahoogroups.com or go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/loddonhistory/ and sign up by following the instructions.

"Before Your Time: In Our Time" 2003 Calendars.

In November of 2001, South Norfolk District Council funded a photograph exhibition in Loddon using our archive images alongside modern photographs taken, as near as possible, to give the view today. Using selected images from this exhibition we have produced a calendar for 2003:- thirteen 9"x6" views, mostly from the first quarter of the 1900s, with a small recent view inset. The calendars have been on sale from various local outlets, if you would like to buy one they now cost £1 plus £1 post and package. Contact us via our e-mail address loddon.history@hotmail.co.uk to arrange payment and delivery.
