==========================================================================
The Littleport Society was
founded in 1987 and its the only non-political, non sectarian
organisation in Littleport whose membership is open to residents and
anybody else who holds an interest in this fenland town. The
Society consists of an expanding group of local people who voluntarily
work together in the interests of the community in which it
lives. The Society now has in excess of 1,000 members, who
live not just in Littleport but in other counties, as well as many in
several other countries including France, Australia, New Zealand and
the United States of America.
The
Society arranges a popular programme of open meetings.
These are usually held on the first Tuesday of every month at the
Village Hall in Victoria Street, Littleport, when guest speakers come
along to give an informative talk, almost invariably with a supportive
slide-show. The evenings occasionally include entertainment
by local singers and musicians. The Society sometimes
arranges coach outings to places or interest within the region.
The Society, ever since its formation, has been collecting photographic
and documentary reminders of Littleport, past and present. These papers
had been spread over various locations but are now being moved into our
new headquarters at 'The Barn' in the Main Street car park. We also
provide a large number of Local Publications by Local Authors. PDF PRICE LIST
The Barn has been refurbished with the aid of grants from the European
Community and the East Cambs. District Council. The
building is shared by the Parish Council on the ground floor and the
Society whose archives occupy the top floor.
