2013 Calendar

Just in the nick of time - next year's calendar is now available!

The nice people at the Historical Records Society have plundered their extensive picture library to produce a smashing calendar for 2013.

The pictures from January to December show the Herne Bay coastline from Hampton to Reculver, from the beginning of the last century up to the 1960s.

These evocative images and the fascinating historical snippets that accompany them make this calendar a delightful (and very postable) gift for your nearest and dearest. That's another few Christmas presents sorted out...

The A4 wall-hanging calendar retails at £7.50 - a bargain! You can pick up a copy from:

• Evening Tide B&B, 97 Central Parade
• Phil Rose, 56 Beacon Hill
• Herne Bay Museum

You can see the rest of the year's images on the HBHRS website by clicking here.

Walk Back in Time in Herne Bay

As part of the Heritage Open Days weekend in Herne Bay, the Historical Records Society will be conducting one of their excellent and ever-popular Walks Back in Time.

This is a leisurely stroll around Herne Bay with the expert historical guides - these walks are always fascinating, and really open your eyes to the wealth of history that's right under your nose all the time.

Best of all, it's free! So just tip up, join in the walk and enjoy yourself. Meet up outside the Museum in William Street at 2.30pm on Sunday 9th September.
