Local history
Provisional in 2004, recognised in 2005. Its outward obligation was arranged before its recognition, which the reviewing steward noted approvingly and which has become the ordinary order of things for new circles since.
The outward obligation
Records and conservation
Records afternoon, held with a parish records office.
Sorting, boxing, and plain repair of parish and cemetery records, one afternoon a fortnight, unpaid and unsigned.
The forms it carries
The Quiet Twelve
Twelve minutes are kept before the reading. Nothing is assigned to the silence.
The Weather Entry
