Dereham Heritage Trust

Picture
The Dereham Heritage Trust (formerly Dereham Antiquarian Society) grew from Academic beginnings in 1953 and is now an enthusiastic group of people with a shared interest in the history of Dereham and the surrounding areas. They wish to improve their own knowledge and understanding of how Dereham came to be what it is now and share it with others - to make Dereham a more enjoyable place to live, work and visit. The Trust manages Bishop Bonner's Cottage Museum and the town's Archive, as well as arranging monthly talks for its members. For information about the Trust, including how to join and to attend its meetings, please visit https://derehamheritagetrust.org.uk/.
