Trips
Our most recent trips have been to the Ceredigion Museum in Aberystwyth and to the Rare Books library in Lampeter University. Attendance numbers were quite low.
Sadly our planned trip to Picton Castle in Pembrokeshire was cancelled due to low uptake .
We will be issuing a questionaire to all members to see if you want us to continue with this activity and if so the type of places you are interested in visiting.
Watch this space!
