SOCIETY PUBLICATIONS

(a) Newsletter

Twice each year the Society publishes a newsletter, circulated free to members containing reports of meetings, County Representatives' reports, and contributions from members along with illustrations.
Material should be submitted to Chris Woodard.

(b) Journal of the Milestone Society

The first volume of "Milestones & Waymarkers", the Journal of the Milestone Society, was published in October 2004, the second volume in October 2006 and the third in October 2009. The Journal will form a permanent record of the work of the Society, its members and other supporters and specialists, working within the aims and objectives of the Society. The articles will be as fully researched and referenced as possible and each should stand alone as a complete piece of work and will therefore be more comprehensive than the short, general interest type of article published in the Newsletter. It is a refereed journal and contributions are welcomed from prospective authors.

Material should be submitted in the first instance to :
Terry Keegan, The Oxleys, Tenbury Road, Clows Top, Kidderminster, Worcs. DY14

(c) “On the Ground”

This is a well-illustrated A4 booklet containing examples of conservation and restoration work by members as well as articles on other activities, published in autumn. It offers practical examples to inspire others!
The Editor is John Nicholls (john [at] nicholls-online.co.uk)
