and a very warm welcome to the WIAS web site

The majority of time at WIAS meetings is occupied by a speaker, followed by refreshments and a subsequent period for follow up questions. The final part of the meeting is then usually taken up with a brief contribution from one of our members, often concentrating on an aspect of the Industrial Archaeology of Warwickshire. We are always keen to have contributions from members or visitors - do not be afraid to put yourself forward for one of these presentations! Occasional additional events will also take place during the year, and members will be duly notified of these.

'Please note that this programme may be subject to alteration due to unforeseen circumstances.'
