My research interests centre on north-west Essex, particularly my home village of
Clavering and nearby market town of Saffron Walden. I am currently secretary of the
Archive Society in Walden, helping to index the old documents and make them more widely
known. The society is working in conjunction with the Essex Record Office and Saffron
Walden Town Council to catalogue and eventually digitise the town archives.
I am also news editor of the FACHRS journal, Family & Community History and welcome
any feedback on articles, regional news and other contributions to the news pages. The
deadline for the May issue is January 1st and for the November issue July 1st.
