The Chingford Historical Society has been established over 60 years. It is a registered charity No 281623 and is governed by a committee elected by its members at Annual General Meetings. We organise meetings during the winter on the second Wednesday of each month and coach tours to places of historical interest in the summer. We publish a bi-annual newsletter. Local history research is carried out and books and newsletters about Chingford's past are on sale. The society is affiliated to Essex Archaeological and Historical Congress.
Our meetings are held at Chingford High School, Nevin Drive at 8.0.p.m.on the second Wendesday of each month from October till April inclusive. Talks on local and general history are illustated with colour slides and there is an interval where tea and biscuits can be obtained. Non-members are welcome to attend for a small fee payable at the door.
The map opposite shows you the location of our venue. There is ample parking at the school and a bus stop is only a few hundred yards away in the Ridgeway and served by buses on routes from Walthamstow via Chingford Mount to the station in North Chingford.
