Leamington History Group

Join us for talks, guided walks, books and films…

Leamington History Group is a lively community group engaging in a range of activities to promote the study of local history in Leamington and the surrounding area.

Our monthly meetings feature talks from speakers who have researched a range of historical topics. We also hold a weekly History Café offering shorter, less formal presentations in a social atmosphere. Our Guild of Guides lead a variety of Free Town Walks, sponsored by the Royal Leamington Spa Town Council.

We publish research articles on our website and have produced a series of local history books. Working with a local film maker, Mark Ellis, we have produced six films which tell the story of Royal Leamington Spa from the origins of the Spa town to the present day.

We actively develop partnerships with local community organisations and schools to promote local history and have participated in a range of local and national projects. Our current focus is on the development of a Digital Archive of historical images, which will be launched at the Leamington History Heritage Day in September 2026.

Membership of Leamington History Group cost £15 per year and details of how to join are available here.
