Welcome to the Chingford Historical Society
The Chingford Historical Society has been established over 85 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 each month and visits to places of historical interest. We publish a bi-annual newsletter. Local history research is carried out and books and newsletters about Chingford's past are on sale.
Our meetings are held at the Chingford C of E Primary School, Cambridge Road, Chingford, E4 7BP at 7.30.p.m. on the second or mostly third Thursday of each month from September until July inclusive. Talks on local and general history are illustrated and there is an interval where refreshments can be bought. Non-members are welcome to attend for a fee of £3 payable at the door.
The map shows you the location of our venue. There is free and secure parking in the school from 7pm - 7.30 pm but if you arrive after 7.30pm expect delays in getting in. There is free evening parking at the Richmond Road car park about 4-5 minutes walk away. There is also footpath access from Kings Road to the school gates.
