History Group –
As I am sure we are all aware, Monday 19th is the day of the state funeral for the late Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and is a Bank Holiday.
The meeting of the History Group will go ahead that evening at 7pm in St Petrock’s Church as planned. This will be an opportunity to honour her memory together.
I look forward to seeing all those who can join us on this occasion.

Saturday 17 September, from 10:30am – 3.00pm
The popular ‘North Hill on the Radar’ event will help people to discover the vital role North Hill played in World War II when the area was closed to civilians and brought under military control. It became one of country’s five new tank training ranges for British, American and Canadian troops. Tucked down the coastal slopes lay a top-secret Radar Station, one of 244 across the country and part of a coastal defensive chain to identify shipping and low flying aircraft.
A convoy of military vehicles will make its way from Minehead to North Hill at 10.30am and throughout the day until 3pm there will be an opportunity to discover more about this incredible period of history from displays at the Radar Station, and through self-guided walks of the training grounds.
