Calstock Parish Local History Group
.The group was formed in April 1999, and has some 200+ members. We meet on the last Saturday of the Winter months at Tamar Valley Methodist Church, Albaston to listen to a talk given by one of the group, or a visitor. During the Summer months, different visits or field trips are organised. The group publishes a newsletter, called Tamar History, three times a year with reports of recent meetings and a brief look at news and research. Please see below for details of our programme of events.
