2008 SPRING MEETING

 

The Spring Meeting will be held in

Folkestone

on the weekend 9th to 11th May

 

An exciting programme is being arranged that will include visits to

The Grand Hotel (ballroom more or less original)

Caesar’s Camp (view out to sea fantastic)

Shorncliffe Barracks

Site of No 3 Rest camp

And other places researched and placed in situ

as well as revealing further characters

(especially the real life ‘Naps’ Spreycombe)

and with readings from

   The Dream of Fair Women

   

                                     The meeting will be led by Dr Mike Maloney and Anne Williamson

who are hard at work on this project.

 

Put yourselves in the mood and mode of Folkestone in 1919

when Henry Williamson was in love with the delicious ‘Eve Fairfax’

and found The Story of my Heart in a bookshop

(and yes we know where that bookshop was)
