WE ARE ALWAYS PLEASED TO WELCOME NEW MEMBERS & VISITORS TO OUR GROUP & MEETINGS. We meet twice a year at Hornsbury Mill, Chard, TA20 3AQ in March and October, where we are entertained by guest speakers and members’ displays of Somerset & Dorset postal history as well as on broader aspects of postal history. Our second meeting for 2017 will be on Sunday 22nd October 2017 when Nick Bridgwater will show Bath and Bill Pipe will show something from Dorset. The Group was at Midpex at Leamington Spa on 8th July 2017 where we shared a table with the Bristol Postal History Group. A number of members were spotted attending what was a well-supported show. Our first meeting for 2017 was on Sunday 12th March 2017 when Bill Pipe showed Dorchester and POW camps, Graham Mark showed more POW material and Allen Cotton showed Postal Stationery. An online copy of the Spring 2017 Journal is available here, password protected in the usual manner. Our second meeting for 2016 was on Sunday 9th October 2016 when Bill Pipe displayed his Purbeck District postal history and Roger Martin displayed Portishead postal history, followed by short displays from members.
