Summer Visits 2025
Each Summer we arrange a number of visits to locations of historic interest in Suffolk, normally with expert guides to show us round. Often we are able to see locations not open to the public.
The programme of visits for the Summer of 2025 will be announced and published below during the Spring of 2025
Some events may be limited in the number of attendees, in which case priority in booking may be given to members (so if you’re not a member, why not join now).
