Worcestershire Archaeological Society

The Worcestershire Archaeological Society has been promoting the study of archaeology and local history in Worcestershire since 1854 and it is committed to co-operation with like-minded local and national organisations to help achieve its aims. There is an annual lecture programme with summer excursions both within Worcestershire and further afield. It also owns an extensive and developing library housed at the University of Worcester which is accessible to members. Through exchange arrangements with other societies, it ensures that this is a source for contemporary research covering much of the country.
