About Us…

The Group was established in December 2011.  We are based in Tilty, in north west Essex, but our members come from several neighbouring villages, and from further afield.  Our principal aim is ‘to acknowledge and encourage people’s interest in the archaeology and local history of Tilty and the surrounding area’. Regular meetings are held in The Club Room, upstairs at The Three Horseshoes in Duton Hill.  These meetings are open to members and non-members, but there is a small fee for non-members.  We usually meet on the third Tuesday of the month – but not every month – and the meetings start at 7.45 for 8.00 p.m. For 2025,  General Meeting dates are:  21st January (AGM), 1st April (originally planned for 18th March), 20th May, 15th July, 21st October and 18th November.  The Group elects a Committee and Voluntary Officers at the AGM each year – current members (elected in January 2025) are:

Jane and Martin Pedley (Joint Presidents), Darren Stone (Chairman), Maggie Stevens (Secretary), Rebecca Fowell (Treasurer), and Alf Wright.
