To our members:  Unfortunately the Covid restrictions mean that we cannot hold the long-delayed presentation on ‘RAF Tangmere and the Tangmere Museum’ by Sqn Ldr Joe Marsden on Friday 2 July.  We have re-arranged this for 3 September the 82nd anniversary of the out break of WW 2.

Meanwhile we have our 6  August meeting on  ‘Sussex Castles’, with John Bleach,

Non-members are always welcome for a small admission charge, which will be refunded if a subscription is taken out (£10 p.a single, £15 for a couple). Subscribers receive our Magazine and can ask for a password to access the ‘Extra Pages’ on this web site. These now include a digital second edition of the book ‘The Day before Yesterday – Ferring in the 20th Century’.

Our full programme for the rest of this year will be posted here in due course.

Welcome to our web site. Below this photograph of Ocean Drive, looking South, posted in 1939, is a summary menu of what is on the site. Most of the pages are available to any visitor to this site, and the many articles of Ferring History may be quoted from, or reproduced in full, as long as there is an acknowledgment of Ferring History Group as its source. 

Other pages, with more detailed history, and (in time) many photographs, are for our members, who pay an annual subscription and, on application, are given a user name and a password.
