January 7th Meeting

Great start to the New Year with our meeting in Pembroke Town Hall yesterday. Jack Tree gave a fascinating talk entitled 'The History Beneath our Feet': describing his work as a metal detectorist . He brought along an exhibition of artefacts and coins, most of which he had unearthed in Pembrokeshire and which, with the assistance of David Williams, were passed around the audience to examine. We began the morning with a coffee morning - so nice to meet up with friends after a long Christmas break! We also opened up the museum and put on a display about Monkton in the Council Chamber to accompany the sale of our book 'Monkton: a Hidden History', which we published just before Christmas. Sales have been fantastic!
