The group explores all aspects of the history of London through talks and discussions. All meetings commence with a brief look at events in London that took place in that month in years gone by, and an update on the latest blue plaques installed by English Heritage.
During the 2020 Covid-19 crisis, the London History Group is not holding its monthly meetings. In the meantime, presentations that would normally have been made at the meetings are being placed on the website for members to access.
