Welcome to our Society’s website. We hope you find it interesting and informative.  Our aim is to share and encourage interest in the history of Bridlington and district, and history in general, in a friendly and entertaining way.

We offer “Local History at its Best”.

Most of our fascinating meetings are illustrated talks, often presenting research by our own members, but be aware that our meetings are for members and their invited guests only.  So why not join?

Newsflash 1.  With our normal venue, the Bridlington North Library, unavailable due to refurbishment, the meetings for the rest of 2025 will be held at St Johns Burlington Methodist Church.

Newsflash2.  Our longest serving member, John Walker, has lodged his immense collection of documents at the Treasure House in Beverley for all to access.  Details here.
