Our next talk will be on Friday, 20th March 2026, when Jeremy Tomlinson  will talk to us about the founding of Lancing College and the other Woodard Schools.  Jeremy taught at Lancing for 35 years and oversaw the conservation and completion of the chapel.

As usual, the talk will take place at the Steyning Centre and will start at 7.30 pm. Liquid refreshments will be served from 7 pm. Guests at our talks are always very welcome at our talks, subject to an admission charge of £5 each.

Our programme of talks for our current season of talks can be found by following this link 2025.26  Please note that, since this was published, we have had to reverse the order of the talks on 15 May and 19 June so that Dr Janet Pennington talks to us on 15 May about Celia Fiennes’ travels on horseback round England and Chris Hare talks to us on 19 June about folk song and folk song collectors.  As usual, both talks will be held at the Steyning Centre and will start at 7.30 pm.
