and welcome to the WIAS web site
WIAS
The Warwickshire Industrial Archaeology Society was
formed in 1989 with the aim of promoting the study,
recording and preservation of the industrial
archaeology of Warwickshire, Coventry and Solihull.
The Society is affiliated to the Association for
Industrial Archaeology. The main activity of the
Society is the regular monthly meeting, with talks
by visiting speakers, although additional visits to
sites within Warwickshire and beyond are arranged on
an occasional basis. The Society has a thriving
membership - from dedicated specialists to
enthusiastic amateurs - and is always keen to
welcome new members. If you would like to come along
as visitor first please do so. There is a small
charge to cover refreshments.
Web Site
The WIAS website welcomes contributions & comments.
All issues of the WIAS newsletter are available and are added quarterly.
Copies of the WIAS original publication,
RETORT,
have
also been added. There is a comprehensive list
of WIAS and other events of interest and again,
contributions are welcomed. The Useful Links page
contains just that and if there is something you
would particularly like to see included, please let
us know! The site has recently undergone a makeover
- we hope you like the new layout and colour scheme.
Mac users will also find the display much better. To

Adobe Software
The newsletters and
Retort magazine are in Adobe pdf format.
If you need Adobe Reader click on the logo - it's
free!
