Forthcoming Events September/October

Pembroke & Monkton Local History Society begins its new season of events with a Quiz Night on Friday September 19th in Pembroke Town Hall at 7pm. Tickets are £5 payable at the door and this includes a buffet. Teas and coffee are provided, but you may bring your own wine if you wish.

Following this, on Saturday morning October 4th, we have a Coffee Morning and Talk in Pembroke Town Hall. Popular local historian Gareth Mills, will give his talk on ‘The History of Orielton and the Owen family - from the Norman period right through to the present day’. He concentrates on the Owen family who were major landowners, industrialists and political influencers throughout the 18th and 19th Centuries in south west Wales. It is a story of political intrigue, which gives an incredible insight into how powerful wealthy landowners were so influential in everything that happened at that time!
